Clearswift SpamLogic spam detection software will be enhanced with Mail-Filters OEM anti-spam technology, the Redwood City-based Clearswift stated in a press release, concomitantly confirming the inking of a new OEM agreement.

"After a stringent evaluation process, we chose Mail-Filters because they were able to provide us with the technology and expertise we required and were the best fit for Clearswift," stated Jon Lee, CEO, Clearswift. "There is a tendency to rely on freeware solutions and engines in the anti-spam market, but we believe that our customers need and want technology that has been more rigorously crafted and built in order to protect their enterprise content. Mail-Filters is recognized as the global leader in this field with over 30,000 enterprise customers of their own. This gave us huge confidence in choosing to install their technology as an additional layer of content security for our own enterprise customers."

"Clearswift's large customer base and their commitment to providing customers with the most comprehensive in-bound and out-bound security solution available make them an ideal partner for us. Clearswift's rigorous evaluation process proved once again that the Mail-Filters signature-based approach to catching spam with minimal false positives is superior to other technologies," commented Daniel Ashby, SVP of Worldwide Sales and Marketing at Mail Filters.

Being the nucleus of Clearswift's MIMEsweeper product suite, the SpamLogic spam detection software will deliver enhanced protection building on top of the current spam filtering and management solution. Mail-Filters will add to the already existing protective solution an additional tier of flexible spam profile signatures.
