Postbox 2.0 - More Concentration on Email

Postbox - Email ProgramWant your email program to make you focus better? Postbox 2 comes with new helpful treats: an array of quick filters lets you reduce any message list to key contacts and certain topics, for example; a "to-do" view shows just messages marked for action; and you can combine all your inboxes into one — but also arrange them in meaningful groups.
Also new to Postbox 2 are a handy shortcut for fast filing (in addition to one for fast labeling) and a frill-less way to jot quick replies.
›› Postbox is a mighty polished Mozilla Thunderbird that brings together fast and ubiquitous search, the powerful Mozilla Thunderbird email underpinnings and conveniences such as a conversation view and some social network integration. (Windows, Mac)


Have a Great Birthday! - Free Email Stationery and E-Card

Have a Great Birthday! - Free Email Stationery Download and E-CardJohn Atanasoff took a long drive. In Rock Island, the Iowa State assistant professor finally had a bourbon — and, the story goes, an idea: a calculator without moving parts. Using electricity, it would compute fast and in a straight-forward manner using base-two numbers. The Atanasoff-Berry computer was born.
Speaking of birthdays: it's John Atanasoff's! Celebrate him (or anybody else, of course) today (or any other day, of course) with a birthday cake today:

Microsoft Office Outlook Connector - Windows Live Hotmail for Outlook Add-On

You're one of Darwin's famous finches, but that doesn't help: your tongue is simply too short and the head too big to reach into the crack in the bark for larvae.
Fortunately, there's always a stick or cactus spine around to put in your beak. With this artificial tongue, reaching the prey is, well, not exactly easy — but elegant and possible.
Woodpecker finches use third-party tools to catch up to 50% of their food, so it can't be wrong for Outlook to employ add-ons where its tongue doesn't reach, can it?

What Spam Filter Are You Using?

Seth Breidbart computes the square root of 37 on Monday. On Wednesday, it's the root of 75. A week later, Breidbart works out the root of 29, and adds up the results.
That's 20.13 for Seth Breidbart — not the hacker, of course, but his index. A Breidbart index over 20, computed from how often the same message appears in Usenet newsgroups, is a strong hint the message can be dropped as spam.
Speaking of spam filtering, what index or tool keeps your inbox clean?
›› By the numbers, spam should be everywhere. If it's not 95% of your email inbox, chances are you have a spam filter to thank. Which spam filter, though, is it? Do you rely on your email service's; the filter built into your email program; a separate spam filter perhaps? Share your pick here and find out what spam filtering others are using, too.
