Re: [PLUG] interesting solution to spam overload


GMail is magical and I love it!

The massive aggregation of email with milllions of users reporting
spam and phishing with easy to use buttons must give it a massive
advantage in developing spam filters.

Recently, SpamAssassin has made it easier to stay current with SPAM
rules and algorithms.

Does anyone have effective spam filtering and training done the "UNIX
Way" (small tools working together)?   It's easy enough to stick a
mail filter in front of your inbox, but it's not trivial to setup a
good ruleset or keep it up to date.

Very interesting idea.

One thing - doesn't google own all of your mail?
