Re: Im lovin google spam filter

Odd.  I have had virtually zero FPs and I don't get any crap in my inbox.   That, to me, is a pretty fair test of a 
spam filter.

Google's anti-spam implementation merits no more than a "D" grade; it makes a number of obvious, well-known design and 
implementation errors, the false positive rate is appallingly high, and then there's the matter of *outbound* 
filtering, which is always far more important than inbound.

Of course, this still puts it far ahead of Yahoo and Hotmail, which earn an "F" only because "Z" is not an available 
grade.
