Has anybody noticed that their spam filters dropping in effectiveness? I
seem to be having to delete a lot more spam than I used to.
Or, is it just that spammers are generating a lot more messages. I find
that my spam folder is now up to about 3000+ per day. I don't recall it
being quite so high in the past.
In one domain I'm getting about 2000 spams/day, rejecting 82%. This is
down from around 8000/day about 4 weeks ago (rejecting 97%). Dunno why.
I also see the number getting through is increasing. There's a lot more
innocent-looking messages with the spam in a gif. Unless you OCR the
gif, I don't think you can do much with it.
Maybe they're using the same bandwidth to send fewer messages that get
through much more of the time.
