How to classify your email using The Action Column |

Classifying your email using the Action column, involves informing MailWasher Pro which of your messages are spam and which are legitimate when you check your mail, so that MailWasher Pro is trained to tell the difference in the future.

MailWasher Pro uses the Bayesian filtering technique for identifying incoming spam. To identify spam, a Bayesian filter looks at the entire context of an email, not just the heading and subject line. It then compares the content of emails that are known to be spam with emails that are known to be legitimate, in order to build a database of words that is used to predict or identify the probability that a future email is spam or not. A Bayesian filter learns to identify new spam the more it analyzes incoming messages and can train itself to identify new patterns of spam.

In order to classify your messages and begin training MailWasher Pro, you need to set MailWasher Pro’s Learning function. See How to set up Learning.
