Spam Drain smartphone app

Although not fishing related there's enough people here who would see a big benefit from this so passing along.

I ran across a link to these guys today, and once I installed it I am seeing instant success for spam prevention on my iphone.

Spam has been a huge issue with my iphone, it wastes alot of time each day. The app is free, they give you a 14 day free trial, and then the service is as low as $15 a year.

It really works. I been getting Dr Oz diet pill spams all this week and it's already stopped this stuff from coming through. They have an Android app also I believe.

So far this thing has popped 107 emails and 88% of my emails so far are/were spam.

NONE have gone through to the iphone, it grabbed only one that was borderline in the Queue whether it should have or not. Sweet!

54,000 spams now since it was setup. VERY HIGHLY recommend this app for your smartphone!

This is extremely accurate when it traps something now.

That's just crazy! LOL, 54000? Could you imagine if this was 30 years ago and that was all paper junk mail? You mail man would have a broken back.

He still does :)

Something needs to be done about the spam problem. Nobody got the balls to stand up and stop it.

The largest single drain on this world is the electricity it takes to run the machines to send this crap worldwide.

Every single day hundreds of people and robots try to register here. I block entire ip ranges for China and Russia or any of the old Russian countries on the spot. It's disgusting.

Shark is from England and somehow he got banned on Xmas day oh wait he lost the pool :)

This week I reconfigured my account to handle the alias domains I have like saltybugger.com or saltwaterplugs.com

Now all mail traffic goes to Sweden first to be sorted then is forwarded to my mail server here in the US.

ABSOLUTELY PHENOMENAL RESULTS. Today I'm going to take the javascript link off the website that only allowed the email to be seen by a real browser. It will now be listed as a normal email address again. I am 100% spam free for the first time since Al Gore invented the internet.

TO DATE 91% of my email is known spam. This has now filtered 98, 075 oh wait 98,080 spams. So roughly 6-7000 a year are valid emails, and orders. The rest is all spam. Now do you think this world has a problem???

I VERY highly recommend the spamdrain application to anyone. WELL worth it.

This has changed my iphone so much just in the last two days that I think the phone is now broken because it's not digning every 2 minutes.. I've been looking in the spamdrain logs every hour for the last two days and it has not flagged anything as spam that isn't really spam so far. These guys really got their chit together.

99,970 spams rejected since 7/27/2012

91% of my email is spam.

THAT is a disgusting figure. Think of all the electricity alone wasted to send me all that junk. One person.

Spamdrain is a NO BRAINER if you get alot of spam. I get maybe 1-2 per week now.


For $15 a year I've saved hundreds of hours of having to wade through spam and junk.


Extremely accurate once it's trained which takes only a few days. I have no financial interest in them, just a very very satisfied customer. 


So what's the going rate on black market Viagra and Cialis these days  :)
