-*Here are three [[software bundles]] worth looking at:
+*'''February 20, 2018''': We have tweaked the spam settings to avoid rejection messages. Please contact us (try [[Jon Glass]] first) if you still get rejection messages when sending to [[Mac-Ministry List]].
-**'''Until December 16, 2011''': '''[http://bundlehunt.com/ BundleHunt.com]''' with Little Snitch, DEVONthink Personal, MacPilot and some creative/web designer tools, all for $50.
+*'''January 20, 2019''': we updated our warnings about the heavily-advertised product [[MacKeeper]].
-**'''Until December 20, 2011''': '''[http://www.productivemacs.com/ ProductiveMacs.com]''' includes LaunchBar (some use this as their primary interface with the Mac) and Default Folder (a wonderful addition to Open and Save dialogs). $40.
-**'''Until December 21, 2011''': '''[https://www.mupromo.com/ MUPromo.com]''' from MacUpdate including such heavyweights as Techtool Pro (with a disc image to make it bootable), email app PostBox 3 and Mac DVDRipper Pro. $50 buys these and more.
-*'''October 20, 2011: Quick Tip # 5''': Beware '''fake updaters''' for software which may pop up with a familiar logo, e.g. after clicking a video in social media. If in doubt, '''don't''' give it your password! Go to the official site (such as [http://www.adobe.com adobe.com]) and check there for updates.
-*'''October 14, 2011: Quick Tip # 4''': in [[Address Book]], set up a Smart Group of all cards that are not in another group, to help you classify new contacts. Smart Groups are also the way to search a specific field.
-*'''September 2011''': invited CATUG members to join a separate '''[[Mac Ministry List#Prayer list|prayer list]]'''.
-*'''May 30, 2011: Quick Tip # 3''': extend your '''[[iPhone battery life]]''' by switching off subtle features that you probably don't need.
-*'''May 12, 2011: Quick Tip # 2''': DO NOT install '''MacProtector''', the latest name for '''fake''' antivirus software previously named MacDefender and MacSecurity.  Just google the name and you will see plenty of advice on removing it.  [http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/virus-removal/remove-mac-protector This one] looks thorough.
