Thanks a lot to the many users of this list that have suggested, both via the list and via personal email, various pro's and con's about my suggestions. Ultimately the conclusions I drew were unsurprising:
(1) They're the default settings because they seem to work best for people in general. (2) changing the default settings might work better, this week, for me. Probably there's no harm in trying (as long as I keep my spam for a while to check things are going OK!), and indeed experimentation might be a good idea. (3) changing the default settings might or might not not be a good long term idea, for me. Cheers, Kevin PS I got spam with the word "p e n i s" in.
