That's the problem with gmail, I believe that it's spam filtering takes place before user designed filters. Thunderbird, (I called it Firefox, my bad), has an adaptive spam filter. If something isn't labeled as junk, and I think it is, I just mark it as junk and vice-versa, and it remembers. I not sure if it's using heuristics or not, but it probably is. It got to the point BG, (before Gmail), that it seldom made a mistake, but it was easily corrected.

Just now I had to visit my gmail account, through the web interface, to get messages from Kim Tang out of purgatory, and there's no guarantee that it won't happen again.

I wish I could somehow turn gmail's spam filtering off, Firefox does a
pretty good job of rerouting spam, to it's spam folder, it's much more
convenient, and it actually learns what I consider to be spam.
What if you create a filter with a trivial condition (like "Larger
than 1 byte" or "Does not contain 'sdhadljfh348hfhsdlfjh4h237') with
the action "Never send it to Spam"?
