John, does just deleting ALL mail from the server count :-) That's 100%
blocking.
It seems that's what almost needs to be done.

Sorry, but any one claiming to block over 95% spam and with a False Positive
rate of 1/10 of 1% is blowing smoke. (White lists do not count, that
circumvents the issue.)



With 95% spam blocked, as FP rate of 1% is extremely hard to get. Target is
less than 2% held or diverted/rerouted. (Deletion rate of ½ of 1% or less FP
is targeted.)



Of course, your mileage may very. But overall, that is what is typical!

Hi all



I am not sure whether providing this information is ok with you all.



But let me tell you all something that finished my headache on spam.

The spam does not even get to my network. It saves me my time and my
bandwidth.
