In a more personal test case, without "WP SpamFree" activated, I have to
sift through 200-300 "spamments" a day (all legit spams, rarely a false
positive). With "WP SpamFree" activated Akismet may actually pick up one
or two spamments every 4 to 5 days. Big difference there in my time
spent rolling through pages of spam caught by Aksimet in case of an
extremely rare false postive. I did tailor Spamfree's message to let
users know to contact me in case of an legit comment error. So far, none
have.
Bottom line...personal preference.

In my sample of 12,000 spam comments Akismet has missed less than 10.
As far as I can tell running another spam filter could only lead to
false positives.

Running both WP-SpamFree & Akismet isn't a waste; if anything, it's

catch
what gets through.

What about the reverse?
What is Akismet missing?
