The trouble is that we tag, but don't block, most of

I've been using simscan to block messages that score 8 or higher for at
least 3 months now, and haven't had a single complaint. The result is
we're blocking 57% of the inbound email, which greatly reduces the load
all around (fewer calls to vdelivermail, less load from users
downloading the spam, etc.)
Based on my logs, we could block 50% by dropping at 12+. I can't
believe that there would be a legitimate message scoring a 12+ that I
would not want to miss.
