Het is alweer een flinke tijd geleden dat de populaire anti-spam tool MailWasher ophield freeware te zijn en verder ging als het shareware MailWasher Pro. Die verandering, hoewel niet leuk voor een hoop tweakers die of hun beurs moesten trekken of op zoek moesten naar alternatieve software, heeft er wel voor gezorgd dat er constant hard ontwikkeld wordt aan het programma. Dat heeft op zijn beurt weer geresulteerd in een nieuwe versie van de software: 3.4.0. De release bevat een hoop veranderingen die hier allemaal op een rijtje staan. Als nieuwe features treffen we het volgende aan:
[break]De nieuwe versie van het programma staat hier.
