Besides those features already mentioned PopFree allows you to:
- Check mail waiting for you on more than one mail server.
- Filter mail according to multiple header fields.
- Keep track of the number of times each of your filters has been activated.
- QuickScan your maildrop. This shows you what mail would have been
deleted or marked as suspect without actually affecting your mail.
What PopFree SE is not:
PopFree SE is not complicated. It was designed to meet my specific needs, not the
needs of a software house desiging software to compete in the mainstream software
arena. Its filtering rules are not complex. It does not contain features that I
felt no immediate need to implement; features were added one at a time when I thought
hmmm, I could do with this or even hmmm, I could do with that in
spits and spurts of about 20 minutes or so at a time (I have very little personal time). If you
don't like it don't use it.
What's wrong with PopFree SE:
- Network error handling is poor. If it fails to connect you are sometimes not
told very much.
- Filtering is basic.
