That sounds like a pretty good filter rate. I'm relying on

The thing is when thunderbird is used, only one user is training the
spam filter. But when you are using gmail, thousands of people who use
gmail will train their spam filter and hence it is more effective.
Further in my procedure given above, you are using two steps - gmail
spam filtering and then filtering in thunderbird. Works like a charm.
Does gmail use baysian filtering? Perhaps you don't get much. I have
heard this below gets 92% with minimal false positives:

I have yet to establish what system my ISP uses. The emails come through
with email headings such as:
X-RBL-Warning: yes
X-RBL-Warning-Info: warn.bl.kundenserver.de says: Dynamic IP Addresses
See: http://www.sorbs.net/lookup.shtml?24.147.79.153
Envelope-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
X-SpamScore: 0
But I don't know what puts the headings in.
