Luckily (or sadly) I don't get much genuine email, as I prefer the 
'phone or handwritten communications.

However the Brazilian addressees are just an ever increasing nuisance, 
because they have got onto the spammers lists, and I still get a few
 n Mb Br Gov and York Aircon emails that are being sent to the wrong 
address even after three years of my advising them (in two languages) 
so now all that stuff goes Blackhole and I don't even know they exist 
any more.

So far there have been no instances of false deletes, but I do check 
my logfile carfully.

Things I want and expect are collected by a well tune Accept: white 
list before any deletes (except for 'Open-Relay' marked stuff)

What more can I say - It works foe me !     :))

Cheers!
