SpamButcher Support
Every few minutes SpamButcher will check for new messages in your inbox. If it finds any spam, it's moved to a holding area for your later examination.
SpamButcher normally runs as an icon on your taskbar.When SpamButcher's e-mail filter is busy checking your inbox for new spam, it will display a checkmark over its icon. If you attempt to check for new messages in your e-mail client during this time, it may have problems connecting to your server.
Dial-Up Users: When first connecting to the Internet, SpamButcher may take up to a minute or more to remove accumulated spam email from your inbox. Wait for the checkmark to disappear before attempting to check your e-mail.
Whenever a new non-spam e-mail is received a small envelope will be displayed.
SpamButcher's anti-spam software can optionally send you scheduled reports of intercepted spam via e-mail. With supported e-mail clients, inadvertently filtered messages can be restored directly from the reports.To restore SpamButcher to a window click its icon in the system tray.
