    Free Mailwasher Version for Vista?

    I used to use a free version of Mailwasher with XP. That version didn't work with Vista. Is the a new free version that works with Vista? I see a pay-for version that says Vista ready...does that work. I'm leery of paying them and not have it work.

    Thanks,
    Mike

    Thanks for the reply. Has anyone used MWP 6.01 with Vista and had luck?

    Hi Mike

    Early this week we expect to release version 6.1 of MailWasher Pro and the free version - both compatible with Vista. Version 6.0 runs with Vista, although we've had some users run in to a few issues which have been resolved with 6.1

    Kind regard

    Not quite yet, but if you check back this week we'll upload the latest free build to mailwasher.net which works with Vista.
    The new free version is a lot less crippled than the current version as well.

    I don't mind getting the "pay for" Pro version when it works with Vista.

    Thanks,
    Mike

    Thanks Nick. I loved MW with XP and was ready for Pro until I got a new PC. I tried Spamfighter, but had trouble finding the spam folder with Office 2007...uninstalled it.

    My 30 day trial is up on these. If I register and pay and "by chance" it doesn't work, is there a refund? Too bad I can't try it for 30 days to see if it works.
    I "may" chance it and register.

    Thanks,
    Mike

    Doesn't quite work on my machine...no IP address or friends list. Maybe I'll wait for the upgrade this week.

    Thanks,
    Mike
