In contrast to solutions that rely solely on blacklists and email signatures, the !PhishPatrol^TM^  email filter uses advanced machine learning to catch new phishing attacks from the very start. Extensive evaluation of !PhishPatrol^TM^ has shown that it consistently catches more phish than the best email spam filters and has far fewer false positives. As a SpamAssassin plug-in, !PhishPatrol^TM^ integrates seamlessly with your existing installation of SpamAssassin.||

It's not the same as autowhitelist (AWL), which is an unlabeled learner, i.e. it just smooths scores per sender over time, but doesn't help senders who have consistently high scores.[[BR]]
