Spam Reader

Pros: It is easy to use and could filter junk mail precisely after some training

Cons: Filtering larger amounts of mail will take some time with Spam Reader.

Benefits:
Spam is a plague of the modern Internet, which intrudes our email for hawking some goods or spreading useless information. Various techniques were developed to protect our e-mail, and Spam Reader is one of the most powerful tools to solve that problem. 

It is an anti-spam add-on for Microsoft Outlook that extends this strong Email software's functionality with a Bayesian spam filter – which means the filtering will automatically adapt and learn from messages that you designate as spam or good mail. In order to avoid filtering the important mail accidently, you could add mail senders into White lists that are excluded from filtering or define keywords and phrases that will always cause the message to be recognized as good mail. 

Spam Reader does not break your existing Outlook filtering rules. This allows you to safely use it with multiple mail list folders and Usenet accounts. It automatically scans your incoming messages and filters spam into a designated Spam folder, from where you can review and delete it. The filtering results were very good, and the program caught most common spam without any further adjustment. So, Spam Reader is easy to use, does not require any maintenance and provides excellent filtering right after installation, it is fairly a nice program for us.
