Re: I rarely get spam on Gmail
That's the jist of the article I got out of it. My only comment is that I noticed this a couple of years ago and isn't anything new to those who deal with the primary level of transactions. |

Sounds about typical - one site I manage rejected 67% up front and then shitcanned about 25% of the remainder. |

I agree... just because few spam messages make it to your inbox (vs. junk/spam box) doesn't mean that spam messages aren't out there. I suspect that since spam filters / junk mailboxes are oout there, spammers send more messages, in an attempt to have a few get through.

said by supergirl  :On ISP or Yahoo, I get a ton. Right, but I think the point of the article was not whether they make it to your Inbox, but that only 5%-10% of the email traversing the Internet is legitimate email.
Our spam filter daily report show we outright reject 51% of the total connection attempts each day, then only delivers about 50% of the email that isn't outright rejected due to the email not passing other levels of the spam filter.
