Full FeedSp@amX retires, hands over spam killing tools to Purify
Hendrickson Software Components’ popular spam tracing and reporting utility, Sp@mX, has been retired and officially turned into Purify. In HSC’s words, “...after many years of faithful service, the venerable Sp@mX has been officially retired, and its servers taken off-line.” Although the name has changed, HSC still promises the same quality from Purify. Version 2.1.1, which deals with malformed e-mails from “newbie” spammers, just came out on July 3rd and development will continue.
For those of you who used Sp@mX, you can email HSC for an upgrade link. If you want to try out Purify and figure now is the time, it will cost you $29.95 for a new license. If you hate spam, that money will be well worth it. Purify offers plenty of features to help rid of those annoying e-mails. With Leopard and Applescript support included, Purify allows you to report spammers to their ISPs and filter your e-mail by images, country of origin, etc. It works on Windows, Linux, and Mac OS X, so be sure to check it out.

I just downloaded the sp@mX 3.1.3 file (spamxclassic.zip), but can not unzip it, using either STUFFIT or UNZIP, since the extracted file have the name spamxclassic.sitx (note the ending x)Seems to me that the problem would be solved if the original (stuffed) file was renamed .sit before zipping.Any other idea to how this could be solved?
