Hi folks --  wondering if anyone has monitored SA's performance against 
phishing mails. SA is able to detect 86% of phishing emails my clients get, 
with 0.5% false positives on all the ham. It seems non-phish-SPAM is easier to 
be detected than phish (~99% for non-phish spam). Probably I need to 
participate on nightly checks to improve phish and lower false positives.
But all the above stuff is about bulk-phish, excluding spear phish. I haven't 
received any spear phishing complain from my clients, and yet none of the 
detected phish mails are spear phish -- which is alarming as it's too good to 
be true that no one did spear phishing yet (specially that it works far better 
than bulk-phish)!
What's the scenario in your mail systems folks? Do you detect spear phishing 
mail by SA? Users report it?
