SidewinderX Released for Mac OS X

Hendrickson Software Components has announced the release of SidewinderX, an automated, AppleScript-able spam tracing and reporting software tool for Apple Mail. The Mac OS X Universal Binary is built on the company's popular Sidewinder Rating Engine, and designed to work with Apple Mail to trace and report spam e-mail, and "spamvertized" links embedded in e-mail messages. It will also allow the user to "categorize" spam by content, and send a different abuse complaint, and use a different CC list for abuse complaints from each category. Versions for other email clients will follow on very soon, as well as versions for Windows, Windows email clients, Linux and Linux email clients.

SidewinderX enables everyone from novice end users to IT professionals working in complex networked environments to effectively reduce spam in their e-mail Inbox and on their network. SidewinderX works by automatically tracing the source of spam and embedded links and reporting offenders to their respective Internet Service Providers. SidewinderX users typically see their spam levels drop dramatically within a few weeks.
