Not sure, but it definitely helps with spam filtering. When people
leave or are terminated, you can figure most or all of their mail is
spam (after a certain point).
I still think the only effective way to filter spam personally is to
block everything by default and whitelist what you want to get through.
Of course I still have the scars from the last time I mentioned this
here so I won't say much more. It's also worthless as a business solution.
