Spam Statistics
We use a hybrid approach to stopping
spam. We use SpamKiller to score the message and then in the 'before
new mail arrives' agent we add 5 to the score if it has been tagged by
an RBL (we use only Spamhaus and Spamcop). Then based on that score,
users can send to a quarantine and/or JunkMail folder.
One week ago, I started saving my Spam.
These stats are from 9am Tuesday April 13 to April 20.

- Compared to only 6 weeks ago you can see that the % to my inbox is significantly higher
- SpamKiller and RBLs still block over 90%, but are less effective
- The average number per day went from 240 to 283 (18% increase)
- 1679 of the messages (85%) of the messages were tagged by Spamcop or Spamhaus
- 175 messages (almost 9%) were scored over 5.0 but were not tagged by a Blacklist, so SpamKiller is still earning it's keep

Perhaps the native whitelisting functionality of ND7 will be what you need finally to convince people to allow you to block and not just tag?

Yes, I still believe that the whitelisting in ND7 will be a big help for those who use DNSBL; but we won't be waiting for ND7.
I just got permission yesterday to block instead of just tagging based on RBLs 
Chris, the best argument I had was what you had blogged about last July at http://chris-linfoot.net/plinks/CWLT-5PXCBN . Thanks again for that post.
