Is this for Yam on OS3.x or OS4.x?

I'd agree with you, but then we'd both be wrong.

SpamFryer is a free Amiga program, written in ARexx by former Amiga Inc contractor and Amiga Format columnist Simon Goodwin, which talks directly to a POP3 mail server and deletes spam without you having to read it. SpamFryer is driven by rules, of which more than 200 are in the October 2008 Aminet upload.

and on Aminet it says Achitecture :- Generic.

@Moxee

I have been using it under 3.9 and 4.0 for a long time now.

It's a great program.

@Simon

Some good additions to an already great and essential program.

Always appreciated.

Cheers mate.

@Moxee @Tuxedo

SpamFryer does not require any mailer, or any other program, to run. It's a stand alone ARexx script that works under AmigaOS from 2.0 (maybe even older OS version, not sure) to 4.x.

With a few DOS/ARexx script lines, you can combine/integrate its operation with another program. See the examples from the "Customising SpamFryer for your environment" section in the online documentation.

@Tuxedo

I don't know much about SimpleMail and its support for ARexx, but it should not be difficult to write a script that, eg., run SpamFryer, then launch SimpleMail (look at the SpamFryer4Thor AmigaDOS script).

a very usefull tool, and the new additions are promising !

thank you for updating it !

I assigned F11 in FKey that will trigger Spamfryer and then open simplemail afterwards.

Great news. Thanks for updating this useful software.

So, when 68k emulation is no more on OS4.x what will you do? Are they working on an OS4.x native version?

@Moxee

You missed the line in the news header that says: "The package includes no binary code files."

It's not about 68k, the SpamFryer package only depends of ARexx and AmigaDOS (and a TCP: device).
AFAIK, ARexx is fully ported to OS4, and there is no plan to drop it in later version of the OS (even with Python being now bundled with the OS4).

@Moxee

AmigaPhil has given the correct and obvious answer but in addition, I would say why do you ask that question in the first place?

What has the future got to do with now?

There are plenty of useful programs that work using emulation under OS4 now.
If emulation is dropped in future versions of the OS, who is to say that some of these programs will not be updated accordingly?

Lets just enjoy what we have now and let the devs worry about the future.

I sure did! I even missed your first post on this topic (post 5).

I have to do a lot of reading on this site and I must admit I am not the best at it. I tend to skim through threads instead of getting into the meat of the matter.

Thanks

Because I wanted to know. Why do you suppose people ask questions? Looks like you just asked a question to an obvious answer also.

If I had not planned on the future I would not be enjoying the comfortable retirement I have now. One has to plan on the future or bare the fruits of his foolishment.

Yes, you are correct, no one can tell the future. So, one has to plan for a future of different outcomes.

Yes, I agree that we should enjoy what we have now, but I do not subscribe to your Live for today, forget about tomorrow philosophy. I would now be living in a tent city if I had. Please think about your future. You may live to be 100. At least I hope you live a long and happy life.

Nothing wrong with a bit of planning.
If I didn't do at least a bit of that, I would be in the pub on my own of a Friday night.

I did not say or imply live for today forget tomorrow.

What I did say was enjoy what you have now and leave future problems to those who are most suited.
In this instance, it's software devs.

I have been the bank today to get money, I didn't ask them if there would be money next week.
It's up to the banks and governments of the world to ensure that there is.

There you go, a nice topical example for you.
