I meant to say two minutes per batch, sorry. I am now receiving about 80%
junk these days since the latest Windows worm struck. The fact that I can
erase them in a few minutes doesn't make it any less annoying. Ending that
annoyance would be well worth SpamSieve's small fee.
Re. JMF, my experience seems to be different from everyone else's. I wish I
could fix it! Following is not a guess: 11% of my "Junk" this week was a
false positive. Only 61% of spam was flagged by the JMF. That's not counting
worms.
People's logic seems odd sometimes because value judgments involve weighting
variables, and different people give different weights to variables like
"how much does it annoy me to see WORRIED ABOUT YUR LUV T00L??? ten times a
day." People's experiences with things like ... oh, say the JMF ... differ,
too. That doesn't make them cretins. I receive mail from about 15 email
addresses, many publicly available (like webmaster and owner-listname
addresses) and receive a tremendous amount of mail, much of it rejected list
posts, subscription requests, etc. JMF worked OK a couple of years ago, but
has become useless to me today.
Sound logical?
