Eli Bendersky's website I may be late, but only now spam starts to overwhelm me. I was never really spam flooded before - up to a few dozens of smap emails per week was something I could handle. I'd go over the spam folder, quickly gazing over the senders and subjects. It took a couple of minutes and I only very rarely found "false positives".
But now my Gmail account easily accumulates hundreds of spam mails in a very short time and going over them is difficult. So I guess I'll just have to start really trusting their spam filter and just clean the folder.
Did you find this transition painful ?
