[Spambayes] FW: Mail-Filters' Anti-spam Approach

[Gregg Foster]

I received a system message from your administrator saying that my first
email was too large for your email server.  Therefore I am resending with
only the one document.  I will send the Testing document in a separate email

Subject: Mail-Filters' Anti-spam Approach


I am writing to you to propose a new business relationship.  We've already
closed some OEM deals recently, including two that already offer an
anti-spam solution.  I expect these to become public knowledge in August.
Because we do things differently (i.e. spam signatures), our current
partners liked our technology because it added value to what they do and
didn't repeat what they were already doing.  I know you already have a very
good Bayesian filter technology in your scanning engine, but I'm confident
our technology would add significant value to what you already provide.

We are actively marketing SpamCure to OEM partners because it is one of the
best anti-spam servers on the market, catching more than 95% of the spam,
but most importantly, achieving an accuracy greater than 1 in 100,000 false
positives.  Our proprietary database has been 100% created by Mail-Filters -
without the use of public RBLs which provide so many false positives.  The
way we catch spam is different than most competitive filters.  We have
developed a unique database of spam signatures that we have derived from
real spam.  As part of developing our own enterprise anti-spam server, our
database has emerged as the very best resource for messages to be identified
as spam.  It is also available as an integrated solution with our partners
using our API.  Our database of signatures are continually updated in
real-time to maintain currency, accuracy and effectiveness.

I would appreciate your reply so that I can talk in more detail about our
technology and set up an web account so you can validate our statistics for
yourselves using our Testing Option #1.  I am confident you will see the
same satisfaction as others have.  From that point we can discuss the best
technical and business approach for our mutual success.

Best Regards, Gregg
