I've no doubt you are right, it's just a feeling I get about the volumes of spam on different accounts. Personally, spam doesn't really bother me - delete and forget. Some of my users however get really stressed by it and complain about every bit that gets through the filters (and complain even more about real mails the get trapped) - I've even been BCC'd on an email conversation/argument that one of my users was having with a help desk bot at a bank for which he had received a phish - it was nothing to do with the bank, my phishing filters had tagged it and neutralised it and they hadn't given out any info, but they still felt the need to tell their bank about it at great length (and get very stressed with the "nonsensical" replies that "Ben" the bot on the helpdesk was coming up with).
