A Great Review of Inbox Buddy !!!.

A Great Review of Inbox Buddy !!!

Wow.  Our very first review of Inbox Buddy.  John of Inluminent fame wrote it and I'm going to happily quote:

Inbox Buddy is a tremendous upgrade to the default Microsoft Outlook 2000 installation. It does a lot of things I wanted Outlook to do, and a lot that I didn't even know I'd like Outlook to do, but now wonder how I got along without these features.

After a quick training session (took less than 15 minutes) upon the first installation, Inbox Buddy started working, and the coolest thing about it was that it just worked.

I can't really explain how much I like having Inbox Buddy working for me in the background, scanning new email for spam and organizing my email, filing away old email, pushing the important email up to the top of my Inbox and unimportant stuff to the bottom... but I can tell you that I like it.

It's still beta, but its truly once of the most advanced pieces of beta software I've ever used. If you're interested, download it now to get a feel for what its like. When it actually ships, I'll mention it again so that you know its ready for prime-time.

I like it a lot.

I'm hooked and I'm ready to pay for it once it's a shipping product. [ Go ]

Finding out about this was actually the only good thing about my Monday.  And it made up for everything else.  As our lead developer said "So Cool".

Inbox Buddy .908 Is Up.

Inbox Buddy .908 Is Up

We just put up Inbox Buddy .908.  New stuff is

  • Enhanced Spam Filter
  • We fixed the how Microsoft Word is used as your email editor when you use it from Inbox Buddy
  • We fixed Signatures being inserted when you use our New Email feature

I have to definitely thank Tommy who pushed us on the Microsoft Word stuff and made sure we fixed it.  Very cool and totally appreciated.

Do I Need to Install .908?

That's really up to you.  The .906 / .907 versions work very, very well.  There's not a real need to upgrade unless the changes described above are of interest to you.

How do I install .908?

Just run the Install program and install over your previous installation.  All settings and training data will be preserved.

Need to Index an FTP Server My Friend?.

Need to Index an FTP Server My Friend?

I just heard from my buddy Apokalyptik that someone put together a full install package for the Windows version of his FTP indexer.  You just have to love Open Source, don't you?  Here someone took the time to write an installer for an OS project that they found useful.  [ Go ]

Note: This is a very full featured FTP spider and indexer which has been tested beyond 500,000 files being indexed (if my memory serves me correctly).  If it's larger or I'm wrong, I suspect checking the comments for this entry will give you the answer (he reads this blog).
