Gmail does an excellent job with spam. I still get a small amount, but snail junk mail is much more of a hassle for me at this point.

I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891 -
At least the senders of snail mail spam need to bear the cost of sending them. Not so with regular spam.(\__/) 07/07/1937 - Never forget

But I don't get too much regular spam. Hence, no real need to get annoyed with it anymore and no moods where I want to start charging the spammers.
Most of the spam I get is now in Chinese.
Edit: My gmail account received 33 spam items today, which were automatically trashed. No false positives. No false negatives. Most in Chinese. A few in Japanese. A few in some unknown encoding.Last edited by DanS; May 1, 2006, 22:45.I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter.
