RE: midrange ezines flagged as spam

Rob,

My ISP does not flag the midrange stuff as spam, but it does categorize most
of the stuff from groups such as Ziff-Davis either as spam or (more often)
virus.  I have found that most of the ISP filters are too judgmental.  If I
actually dumped all mail that the ISP flags as spam I'd be missing four or
five valid e-mails a day (including many personal e-mails!) - you can
understand that in my business this is not a good thing.

I am using K9 on my PC and haven't had a genuine e-mail identified as spam
in over a month.  It misses very few - maybe 1 or 2 (out of 200+) a day.

To me the server spam blockers seem to be just too enthusiastic.  I'd rather
one or two get through than miss genuine e-mails.
