New image spam filtering tool

There are new kind of spam haunting our email world now a days. We must all be getting hundreds of such emails which have least amount of text but most of it written on a .gif image embedded in the body of the email. I can safely say most of us all are getting such emails because I have 4 email accounts and half of them are on very popular free web-email service providers and even they are not able to filter these spams even when they have expensive enterprise level spam filters.

If that indeed is the case with you than you should have a look at a very efficient tool to stop image spam named BorderWare MXtreme which is an email firewall appliance that detects and filters 98% of all spam from email servers. They have developed an Intercept Image Analysis technology which they claim checks over thirty attributes about any image. This inspection includes checking the positions and relationships to other message characteristics. Also, the technology is such designed to adapt and learn about new image spam campaigns.
