Comments from Courier Users
"Novices will appreciate Courier's ease of use, simple
installation and fantastic technical support. Power users will love
Courier's ability to handle just about any e-mail task you throw at it.
For network administrators, the efficiency of copying just one file to
back up all your data makes for stress-free backups. Topped off with
superior security features, Courier is a "must have" app.".

Courier Helps You Organize Your Mail
- Color Markers - NEW! Courier's new "Color Markers" help you organize your mail by marking certain messages with alternative fonts, font colors and background colors. (Screen shot)
- Fight SPAM Courier's Junkyard Filter can be used to automatically delete SPAM mail based on keywords, sender's addresses or domains, or other criteria that you choose. The new WhiteList filter criteria can check incoming mail's sender against your address book, and automatically route messages accordingly. Courier also integrates with the free POPFile mail filtration system for even more anti-SPAM options.
- Powerful Filters Courier's extensive filters make a powerful organizational tool. Based on criteria you set, messages can be routed to various folders, replied to automatically with pre-defined templates, or marked with various Color Markers. Attachments can be automatically saved to different folders on your hard drive, or deleted completely. Message senders' email address can be automatically added to your address book, or to text mailing list files. You can also use these filters in conjunction with virtually all anti-SPAM products. See the filters screen shot to see all of the filter options available.
- Need PIM Integration? Courier can share address books with the award winning Time & Chaos personal information manager from Chaos Software to simplify your contact maintenance.

Courier Protects You From Virus and Worm Infected Mail
- Plain Text Mail Viewing HTML email messages can contain embedded scripts with malicious code, or links to graphic files on the Internet that confirm that SPAM email sent to your address has been received and viewed. The safest setting for email is to view messages in Plain Text mode. Courier can be configured to view all mail in Plain Text mode by default while still allowing you to quickly and easily switch to HTML view for a particular message by clicking on the HTML tool bar button or using the Ctrl-W hot key combination.
- Configurable Security Settings Courier can also customize your HTML security settings to provide some protection against these types of messages. You can:
- Disable background sounds in HTML mail
- Disable videos in HTML mail
- Disable pictures in HTML mail
- Disable Java script execution
- Disable other script execution
- Disable Active X component downloads
- Disable Active X component execution
- Disable client pull execution (disables downloading of linked files)
- Encrypted Address Book The Courier Address Book is encrypted. This means that Internet worms that target the Windows Address Book cannot access your address book in order to send themselves to all of your contacts.
- Monitor Attached File Types Courier maintains a list of file types that are commonly used to spread worms and other infected files. If you try to open one of these types of attachments, Courier will prompt you as a security measure to prevent the inadvertent opening of a dangerous file.
Courier Gives You Flexibility in Handling Your Email
- All-In-One Mailbox File Courier's unique mailbox file structure keeps all of your mail, account information and preference settings in a single file, making it a snap to move your mailbox from one computer to another - great for moving between your desktop and laptop. This also makes it easy to access your mailbox across a LAN, a very handy feature for home and small business networks.
- File Attachments You can save file attachments as part of the mailbox database, or have Courier automatically save attachments to one or various different folders on your hard drive.
- Checking Mail You can have Courier check all of your accounts at the same interval, or set individual intervals for each account.
- There are literally too many features to cover here, but for a good overview of many Courier features please see the Courier Quick Reference Guide
