Spamness

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

I was just sitting at my desk thinking how useful it would be; hoping, dreaming and wishing that I had a way to sort emails in a folder by their spam rating. A quick Google later and I found that some genius had already done all the work and made me this add on.

I installed the Spamness 0.6.2 add on to Thunderbird 15.0.1
And it "just works" perfectly with my existing Debian / Postfix / Spamassassin set up.

I can now clearly see an overview of how the server responsible for delivering my emails is identifying messages as spam where previously I had to dig through the headers on an individual per mail basis.

I liked how after the initial install there is a prompt screen that gives your a brief but sufficient overview on how to use the software rather than expecting you to wade through the entire internet trying to locate a text file of documentation. It's clear to me that some thought has gone into this add on.

I don't usually write reviews but I felt the average rating for this add on didn't reflect it's performance as people had scored it (in my opinion) too low possibly because they didn't understand how it should be used or due to their own unique (weird) configuration requirements.
