VBSpam+: And the winner is..

After the exciting first placed in the January test edition, Libra Esvarepeats vbspam-plus-0312itself by winning the March edition of the prestigious Virus Bullettin comparative test! The outcome would not need of further comments, were not for the fact that Libra Esva was the first and the only product, among the 22 competitors, being awarded the newSPAM+ Award, reserved  to those products that block all but at most one in 200 spam messages (i.e., have a spam catch rate of 99.5% or higher) and at the same time do not block any legitimate email; well Libra Esva filtered out 201.049 emails, missing only 59 spam email (SC of 99,97%!) and blocking none of the now almost 9,000 legitimate emails!

Martijn Grooten, technical director at Virus Bullettin, said:

After achieving the highest final score in the previous test, it seemed like there was little opportunity for Libra Esva to improve. Yet the product did just that: it was the only product in this test to increase its spam catch rate, while once again blocking none of the now almost 9,000 legitimate emails. The product achieved the highest final score and is the first winner of a VBSpam+ award.
