C-Command Software announced on Wednesday the immediate release of SpamSieve 2.7. The new version now requires Mac OS X 10.4 or later, has added accuracy improvements with obfuscations, image attachments, URLs, HTML and more.

According to C-Command, the update also includes the following enhancements:

• Improved corpus speed and memory use.
• Made various improvements to the column widths and alignments    in the rules and corpus windows, and added alternating row colors.
• Fixed a rare problem where Apple Mail on Mac OS X 10.5 might hang if you trained a message as spam while Mail was downloading messages.
• If the OS reports an error when playing a sound as an alert sound, SpamSieve now plays it using the normal sound channel.
• Increased the range of possible values for the uncertain spam threshold.
• Improved sorting of sound names in the pop-up menu.
• Fixed bug where SpamSieve wouldn't launch if the "Microsoft User Data" folder had been replaced by an alias file that was invalid.
• No longer shows the **Reset Corpus/History** alert at launch  if you hold down other modifier keys in addition to Command-Option.
• Updated the Dutch localization.

SpamSieve 2.7 requires OS X Tiger or later and is priced at US$30.00. The update is free for owners of previous versions.
