Changing the subject to minimize discussion of technical detail. I would
just like to hear from others with more experience - which of the existing
services are doing it right, and how do they do it? The goal is near-zero
spam in my inbox (1% is my threshold of annoyance), and no lost emails.
Also, please disclose if you have any connection with the service.
I have been using gmail for the last few years. No connection other than
as a client. Spam in my inbox is maybe one in 200. I have noticed one or
two lost emails in the last year. Before that I was not aware of any.
Note: I don't count as spam any that appear on a separate tab labeled
"Promotions". I don't count as "lost" any that appear in my spam bucket.
How do they do it? I guess they have a very complete whitelist of
senders. They also have an icon "Report spam" at they top of their
webpage, which I assume is their main source of rapid feedback.
My wife uses Yahoo, and she is seeing a lot more spam, but not enough to
motivate her to change services. I guess they also use a whitelist.
