Yes, when the amount of spam you get is 800-900% more than the amount of real email then you need to take measures. I run my SpamAssassin at score level 1 to stop everything. I rather throw away one real email per week than have to delete several hundreds spam that slipped through at a level below five. If I were to look at and manually delete the spam myself it would probably cost me 4 hours per work week (40 hours). That is a huge cost of UCE. Henrik -- "There is no emotion; there is peace.
