[Spambayes] Incredimail

[Jesse Pelton]

Being curious and paranoid (like any experienced programmer), I tried to
install Incredimail in a scratch virtual machine.  Unfortunately, it's a
network-based installer, and our firewall blocks part of it.  I could
ask to have the file let through, but I've got work to do.

I didn't find the site confidence-inspiring either.

Just for grins I just sent them a message.  I'm skeptical whether I'll
hear
back from them though.  They had no support contact.  Most contact
categories were of the bizdev/investor relations/pr type.  I think their
main goal is making money, not supporting their user base.

Maybe someone would like to download the Incredimail installer and see
if
the binary can be "patched". ;-)
