What a bunch of BS, it's a spamming tool anyway you look at it.
If spammers are curious about how I treat their email, the company would have to change it's name to DidTheyDeleteIt.com. |

Ok, for future reference:
Rampell Software LLC and Rampell Software Inc.
If this gets into the hands of adware marketing spammer (which it will), they will have yet another new tracking tool. Watch someone take it another notch up and hack it to add it to their adware installs so that it acts like a trojan that attaches itself to the users email and have the program monitor and transmit back to the controlling server when a user clicked on the spam and all that was done..I will try to create a profile of their activities and all so I can then do a write up in the future if needed but I don't think I will advertise this one on my web site to alert those who would use it to their own advantage in generating more profits.

I read a little bit about this at Slashdot. Sounds like it isn't that hard to beat, if you know what you are doing. Say reading mail with Mailwasher in plain text on the server.

Should be easy enough to write a filter for Mailwasher, deleting everything with the deleteit.com address/code/name etc.
It's just one more thing to watch for in the headers, before opening mail.
