Your mail client software (e.g. Microsoft® Outlook, Outlook Express, Thunderbird or Eudora) must be configured to enable filtering by Spamihilator.

Use the setup wizard to configure your mail client. The wizard will be launched after the installation of Spamihilator.

You can use the setup wizard later by clicking on Spamihilator/Setup Wizard in your start menu.

1. Open your mail client and then open the account settings from its menu
2. Enter your username in the following format:
   
   

   pop3server&username[&port]

   If you have an IMAP server you may enter your username in almost the same way:

   imapserver&username[&port]

   The port is optional.
   
   Examples:

   pop.gmx.net&anyuser@gmx.net&110
   pop3.web.de&freemailuser
   mail.anyserver.com&anyuser
   imap.theserver.com&myself&143
   imap.anotherserver.com&someoneelse

3. Enter localhost (or 127.0.0.1 alternatively) as POP3/IMAP server.
4. Save your settings by clicking on OK.

This is an example from Microsoft® Outlook Express:
