You also have to option to tag and release, I have one person of 6000
that does this, he filters on his end with a mail rule and searches his
spam folder if he feels he has missed something.

We do a lot of hand holding here, so we interface with our customers
quite a bit.  Maybe that's why we are hearing the complaints of false
positives.  We are a smaller shop, and talk to many of our customers
weekly if not every few days.  They have always been honest with us, and
told us what they think.  We encourage that.  I can't help but wonder if
some running M3 are so much larger, and don't have that communication
with the customer, that they really don't know how many false positive
issues their users are having.  Just a thought...not saying it is that
way, but there are several on this list that are having the problem, so
it's not a fluke.

Hi Jim,

We are a small rural company in a community of 2000 people.  I
understand living among your customers and getting their honest
feedback.  We hold quite a few hands also  :)

Modus 2 was not doing the trick for us.  The feedback from customers was
that there was no spam filtering at all, or that it was only reducing
the amount of spam by a small amount while still leaving quite a few
junk messages that had to be dealt with.

Next, customers reported that Modus 3 effectively turned off spam.  As a
few weeks passed, customers began reporting some false positives.  This
is where we began educating the customer on actually viewing the sieve
report, release and white listing functions.  

We also advise the customer that if viewing the sieve report is too much
trouble, we can deliver all messages to their inbox (turn off
filtering).  So far, I've only had one taker on this option.

Which option is better?  We put our money on the occasional false
positives, but allow the customer to ultimately decide.
