That is not remotely a complaint.   But it is a potential explanation.  I 
simply don't know.  I'm not complaining.  But it is a fact that it is 
difficult to get the balance between false positives and letting too many 
through.  I suggested then as I suggest now that repeating spam, as the 
earlier poster had done,  makes the job of the spam filters harder.  

I run my own spam filter as well.  I get very little spam.
