New Garbage Man 8.0.0 Released (6/09/03)
The latest version of Garbage Man, junk email filter for America Online, has been released to the public. The new version includes compatibility with the new America Online version 8.0 Plus for Broadband, as well as backwards compatibility with AOL 8.0, 7.0, 6.0, 5.0 and 4.0 and most versions of Microsoft Windows including XP, 2000 Pro, Me, 98 and 95.

New features for the new version include positive keywords scanning for subject and body filters that keep messages. The new version also fixes issues with the "Add Address Book" feature that imports your AOL address book into your Friends list.

Garbage Man 6.08 Maintenance Release (5/20/02)
Latest Garbage Man revision corrects a few issues such as problems with image attachments and increases compatibility with America Online version 7.0. While 6.08 still does not officially support the new version, AOL 7 users should experience drastically fewer, if any, compatibility issues.

Also, the Add Address Book feature has been temporarily removed for AOL 6 and AOL 7 until a suitable solution is found. AOL 4 and AOL 5 users will still have access to this feature.

As to why Garbage Man 6.08 was not released as Garbage Man 7.0, we are currently adding a new look and many new features requested by our users as well as developing and testing a Windows XP version which we hope to release in a matter of weeks.

Garbage Man 6.0 Beta Release (6/12/01)
Garbage Man 6.0 beta lacks the Address Book Import feature for AOL 6.0. With the exception of that feature, Garbage Man 6.0 beta is almost fully functional. Garbage Man 6.0 beta is being made available to the public for download while we continue to work on a solution and a few features to Garbage Man 6.0.

Along with the long anticipated release of Garbage Man 6.0 comes a new version numbering system. With all future releases, the version number will correspond with the compatible version of America Online software. (ie. Garbage Man 6.0 is compatible with AOL 6.0, Garbage Man 7.0 will be compatible with AOL 7.0).

AOL 6 Issues (1/31/01)
The recent release of America Online 6.0 introduces a new and improved e-mail system! Unfortunately, a new mail system means that Garbage Man 1.5 will not compatible with America Online 6.0. Nothing to fear, a new compatible version of Garbage Man is being currently under development and will be released. However testing usually takes a few months, so in the mean time, a temporary fix will be released ASAP.

1.5 Update (1/09/00)
