Unlike "the others", EPA accurately applies YOUR precise preferences ("wants") to classify and manage of ALL your e-mail!

• The others --> If an e-mail's content does not exactly match an "UNWANTED" text pattern, the e-mail is "WANTED".
  EPA -------------> If an e-mail's content does not exactly match a "WANTED" text pattern, the e-mail is "UNWANTED".

• The others --> Limit your e-mail access by arbitrarily blocking some e-mails addressed to you from your inspection based on THEIR criteria.
  EPA -------------> All e-mail addressed to you is processed according solely to YOUR criteria (YOUR "wants").

• The others --> Apply "guessing" logic that falsely classifies some "wanted" e-mail as "unwanted" and some "unwanted" e-mail as "wanted".
  EPA -------------> Precisely applies your specified "wants" to classify your mail with ONLY TRUE and NO FALSE results.

• The others --> Provide you with limited onward processing options for both "wanted" and "unwanted" mail.
  EPA -------------> Permits you to apply general or complex processing actions specific to the e-mail's subject matter, addressee and sender.

• The others --> Process only incoming Internet personal mail.
  EPA -------------> Processes Internet-incoming AND Internet-outgoing AND domain-internal, personal AND organizational mail.

How do EPA's differences make it the most effective, useful process for YOU?

• Let's say you're famous and giving a very large private party. You've hired guards to prevent 'partycrashing' Do you give the guards:
  1. A list of names of those you don't want to attend (a "black list") and tell them 'Admit everyone not named on the list'? ___OR___
     
  2. A list of names of those you do want to attend (a "white list") and tell them 'Admit only those named on the list' ?
     
  Obviously, only method 2. can assure that you get what you want - no 'partycrashers'
  
  
• "One person's trash is another's treasure". Only you can say what you want at any particular time.
  
  
• How could someone with whom you've never communicated know what you want? Would you allow someone you don't know to censor and block your personal mail under any circumstances?
  
  
• You deal with all mail when and as you want. Basic EPA actions to deal with "unwanted" mail include 1.) Tell the sender "no one here by that name"; 2.) Put the e-mail in the trash without further processing; 3.) Forward the mail to the mailbox of an external agency you want to deal with it; 4.) Forward it another box of yours or file it where you can browse and dispose of it at your leisure. Based on the sender of a "wanted" mail, reception processing might include translation and distribution functions.

• At home and everywhere else, you get identical e-mail filtering effectiveness and e-mail control using identical software.
