Filtering is a complete waste of time for some domains. It's
simpler to give up, and walk away from the domain. If you can live
with filtering, that's nice for you. But you should also realize that
by some standards, you're not receiving any appreciable amount of
spam.
Alan knows of what he speaks.

PASS = email getting thru (production email)
BLOCK = IP-based blocking (DNSBL and local, production email)
FILT = content filtering (production email)
SPAMTRP = spamtrap domains.
CPT = end-user complaints on what got thru (production email). We
average one or two complaints per hundred spams that get thru.
The last day only shows complaints and spamtrap so far today. Don't get
other three numbers til tomorrow.
