Dear Gentle Readers,

Aunty thought that, with all of the dire news around us today, she would share a chuckle with you.

You see, according to an article in Security Pipeline, Solinus, the makers of MailFoundry, are making an offer that users of Spam Assassin-based products can turn in their product and receive $600 off the MailFoundry product.

Why would one want to do that? Well, you see, MailFoundry is based on a unique human intelligence-based product.

They say that a picture is worth 1000 words, but in this case the words are oh-so-much-more amusing. According to the article (emphasis mine):

Ant-Spam Vendor Offers Discount For Trade-Ins On Competitors’ Products

Solinus is so certain of the superiority of its Human Intelligence-powered anti-spam technology that it has announce that customers of SpamAssassin-based products can now move…

…CEO David Troup is making the offer to all comers, whether they are enterprise users, educational users, or government agencies. “We are so confident in our approach that we are willing to offer this rebate to encourage customers to step up to a superiod product,” he said.

MailFoundry usese Solinus’ MessageIQ technology, which is unique in its utilization of Human Intelligence…”

Let’s hope so.

Kissy Kissy,

Aunty
