Eglum SpamSnare is an innovative anti-spam tool with a unique approach to fighting spam that gives you complete protection from junk mail.
Eglum SpamSnare uses a combination of two spam blocking techniques.
1. The program identifies spam free messages by checking all received e-mail for the presence of your individual
Anti-Spam Tag, which you provide to selected respondents.
2. Additionally, the program singles out messages from senders whose e-mail addresses are on your
Secure E-mail List. These messages are not spam either. The Secure List is built by you from e-mail addresses of trusted people and organizations, whose letters you do not consider as spam.
Anti-Spam Tag
The
Anti-Spam Tag is an individual keyword chosen by you and requested to be included in the text or subject of a message by anyone writing to you. Every time the program scans all the incoming messages, it checks if the specific anti-spam tag is present. If this tag is detected, then the message will be added to the list of those e-mails that are definitely not spam. This type of approach guarantees that messages containing the anti-spam tag are 100% spam-free. The presence of such a tag indicates that the author of the message is writing exclusively to you and this specific e-mail is not part of a mass mailing campaign.
It cannot belong to such a campaign simply because bulk mailing programs do not have the option of attaching individual additions to specific messages. This type of algorithm virtually defeats the purpose of mass mailing. Its only setback is that those writing to you must know your current anti-spam tag and must remember to include it in every message directed to you. However, this disadvantage pays off by giving you complete protection from spam and a guarantee that you will not lose valuable messages. Besides, the distribution of your Anti-Spam Tag to trusted respondents is very simple and hassle free (click on

Secure E-mail List
The second, additional algorithm deals with creating a list of e-mail addresses from which mail will not be treated as spam. This is called the
Secure List. You are basically defining the people and organizations that you want to receive mail from.
With the Eglum SpamSnare this list can be easily updated. When you check your mail every day using this program and browse through the sorted messages you can always add an e-mail address to your Secure List with one click. Therefore, you can build an abundant Secure List in about 3-4 weeks, which in combination with your Anti-Spam Tag creates a double barrier for junk mail, without losing valuable messages.
The combination of these two techniques is the core of a highly effective and secure tool for blocking spam.
