Mail checkpoint

[cjsmith]

I've cleared out the spam-backlog in my personal mail account and have responded to everything I found that seemed to want a response. If I didn't reply it's because the mail is gone -- please send again or comment here.

(Even with aggressive filters I get about ten pieces of spam to every piece of mail I need to read, and about 90 pieces of spam to every one I need to reply to. My 'd' key gets awfully quick right after I come home from a trip.)

Wow, it feels good to have THAT done.

You get 232 caught by the filter in one week, or you get 232 that made it through? Either way I'm stunned at the low number! :)

The 232 messages were the ones caught by the ISP's filter. In that same week, three made it through. Not bad at all, really, since I've never seen a false positive at the ISP's level.
