I ran SpamSieve with EntourageX but when I switched to Apple’s Mail[.app] I stopped. Partially because it didn’t work properly with POP mailboxes and partially because I didn’t have to. The built in adaptive spam filter in Mail stopped most of my spam – for a while. Recently however, its been letting more spam through than it’s been stopping.

Luckily, SpamSieve now fully supports Mail.

Bye bye HGH, Penile Enlargement, and Nigerian officials..

When I first set up this blog, I had to use Goliath to for WebDAV access to the server. For some reason Panther’s Finder wouldn’t work.

Well I’ve updated Panther a couple of times since then, and the Finder now connects fine. Go figure

YES! What he said!.

Who talks like that? Anyway, I just read the product announcement on Versiontracker for the latest release of the OS X version of BRU. I’ve heard good things about this software, and honestly, Retrospect really needs a kick in the pants.

BRU is a command line backup system that has been around forever in the UNIX world. They’ve tweeked it for Jaguar and Panther and added a Aqua GUI wrapper. But this is the final line from the Versiontracker listing and it struck me as hilarious:

“In addition to the graphical application, all of the command line functionality is still included at no additional cost.”

It’s the “no additional cost” bit that gets me.
