Tons o' Spam

Saturday, 29 November 2003 16:28 by Peter Provost

Boy, I just don't know what I would do without SpamBayes. I kinda forgot to check my personal email account for a week. (The address of which is plastered all over this site and has been on the spam lists for almost 10 years.)

Needless to say, I got SPAMMED! 1281 junk mails. Wanna guess how many false positives SpamBayes messed up on?

ZERO!

How about how many messages went unfiltered?

SIX!

Out of 1281 spam messages, only 6 were missed by SpamBayes. That is a miss rate of less than 0.4%. Fucking sweet.
