MCleaner: Spam filter for SMS

Amazing. Found this out and I’m quite amazed that we have a comprehensive SMS blacklisting tool available for the Symbian platform.

There are really just those annoying SMS messages that come from unknown senders or stalkers. Wouldn’t it be nice to automatically quarantine them for “future reference” with the business end of the law? Also, wouldn’t it be nice to auto quarantine annoying text spam from your carriers asking you to sign up for new promotions and useless downloads? Well, MCleaner does this all. It’s a customizable spam filter, a mobile phone SMS firewall. And your new best friend.

There’s a small caveat though, which is especially true to certain Nokia phones that do not distinguish between the first few numbers of two different SIM cards. In this case, MCleaner has a tough time with international format numbers that end up in the black list.
