Main buttons

 

When you install the demonstration version of MailWasher Pro, there are six main buttons. Once you have registered your copy of MailWasher Pro, the Register button no longer displays.

 

 

Check Mail

Click  to instruct MailWasher Pro to check your default email account(s) for new messages. MailWasher Pro then displays the headers of any new messages in the Message table. If you have more than one email account, click the down arrow next to the Check Mail button, and select the account you want to check. You can also do this by selecting Tools > Check for New messages from the MailWasher Pro menu.

 

Stop

Click  to stop downloading or processing mail at any time.

 

Process Mail

Click  after you have finished checking your email, to action the requests that you have made. Messages you have marked for deletion are deleted from the message server, those you have chosen to report are reported to the spam database, messages you have marked for bouncing are bounced back to the sender, and if you have marked any emails for blacklisting, then the senders address is automatically added to your blacklist.

 

Mail Program

Click  to launch your default email client in a separate window, without closing MailWasher Pro. If your email client is already open, the email client window displays. If you have more than one email client, select Tools > Options > Launch email application after processing > Specify to manually select which email program you want MailWasher Pro to open.

 

Spam Tools

Click  to use MailWasher Pro’s heuristics, built in spam databases and the Firetrust content filtration system, First Alert!

 

Register

Click  to display the Registration window, where you enter your registration key, which is provided to you when you have purchased MailWasher Pro. Once you have registered MailWasher Pro, the Register button no longer displays.
