What if you could get all the intelligence of PhishTank right in the application where you receive the suspicious emails? For Outlook and Outlook Express users, you can now!

The team at Project Honey Pot used the PhishTank API to bring PhishTank capabilities right into Microsoft Outlook and Microsoft Outlook Express, the popular Windows email clients.

The key feature is the ability to check a suspicious email against the PhishTank database right in your email client and (if necessary) report a phish. It’s seamless, giving you a one-click way to make your Internet use safer. PhishTank will benefit, too, from making submitting suspected phishes even easier.

You do need a free PhishTank user account to benefit from the Addin. For security’s sake, you will be asked (once) to authorize the use of the Addin with your PhishTank account.

Kudos to Brandon and Eric, especially, and thanks to the entire team at Unspam (the company behind Project Honey Pot).
