Hrmm - raises an interesting thought .... assuming this is a Robert Blake
(tm) domain that you have complete control over, would you like to test
the filtering on my mail server to see how it compares to those two
benchmarks? I'd like to get subjective opinion from an interested party.

It seems to me that spam received here has fallen (by volume) quite
considerably lately, but I have also implemented several other techniques,
so I can't be sure of the what, where, when and why.

Totally. But thats a good thing. There is room for all levels of filtering
and blocking. There is a customer base which desires it. I think if its
marketed that way then if anyone says that it should "fixed" I would
recommend that they shop around.
