You didn't have too many false positives that way?

I setup Postini in the cloud for my previous employer and we had great results 
with the filters set at the highest level.

I'm having rotten luck with Postini's junk mail filtering, and wondering if I 
was the only one. Here's a typical example:

Note that only 2 messages were blocked outright as spam, while a couple of 
thousand were quarantined. When I look at the quarantined messages, they're 
very blatant spam--various colon cleansers and enlargers and what not.



I've been working with Postini support, but am going around in circles with 
them. They say everything is configured correctly, and they say something about 
them making some changes on their end, and something else about me submitting 
spam headers to them, blah bah. Nobody there seems to think this is quite as 
problematic as I do. And granted, the junk isn't making it into my users' 
inboxes-but it's making it into their quarantine, and it takes time to look 
over that (my personal daily quarantine summary generally has 150 or so 
messages in it).



So I'm wondering of those of you who use Postini... Do you see similar results? 
Or do you have better luck having spam blocked outright?
