Like other posters, I don't have real stats on the amount of spam that
makes it past the filters, other than my own mailbox. I typically get
from 2-3 spam messages per day, on rare occasions, maybe 6-10. We use
blacklisting, the SARE rules, ImageInfo, FuzzyOCR and local custom
rules.
Our overall stats for the last 24 hours are: Msgs %total %after rbl
total incoming messages: 84620 100% --
rejected (cbl.abuseat.org, list.dsbl.org): 57624 68% --
viruses (ClamAV): 183 0.2% 0.7%
spam (blocked): 22294 26% 83%
possible spam (sent to user mailbox): 252 0.3% 0.9%
clean (sent to user mailbox): 1828 2.2% 6.8%
So, bottom line, of all the incoming mail, only 2.5% is actually
delivered to a customer mailbox.
