I just discovered that every email that passes through procmail is logged (I’d forgotten I’d set it up like that). A quick analysis of the log shows that 62.8% (5473 out of 8655 emails) of my email is moved to the spam folder by procmail (after being identified by spamassassin). There are a few extras that wind up in my inbox but no more than one or two emails a week and I’ve only come across about 5 false positives since I set up spamassassin (most of which are QANTAS’s flight detail emails). That’s a pretty sad state of affairs really. Fortunately, thanks to spamassassin, I use my email completely unhindered.
