A bit naughty this, I got message from Nick Bolton at Firetrust (makers of the excellent Mailwasher product) to upgrade to latest version 4.01 . However after downloading, Mailwasher only works once and heres the rub your old registration key doesnt work! you have to fire of an email and get a new key. Even though his email says “all your existing settings will be retained”.
Oh well I guess if you work against spammers all the time you must acquire some of their habits or “It takes one to catch one”
