All my users are /QUITE/ Happy with the changes. I notify them if there is any dropped mails and if they want i even go as far as added that mail server into the Postfix 'access' DB and allowing it to pass thru. Which makes them happy. I feel this way, If you want service with a Junk Mail box to determine if it's spam or not, go sign up for hotmail. I dont need the server littered with thousands of pieces of SPAM clogging both the network and the disk drive. What happens if you get 500+ Spam a day and you dont check for 3days. Then you have 500*3 sitting in your Inbox to check. Now i dont know about you but i would rm my mailbox and start over. I have no desire to go over 2000 messages or 1500, or 400, or 30 trying to figure out what is legit or what is not. If it passes thru the filters it has a decent chance of being solicited 'SPAM'. and that's just fine for me. If the users want it great. But dropping 2,000+messages a day due to my filters for just 3 users i am taking into account, is a great thing. Ask anyone. Your thinking to yourself if i do that i'll loose business. To me it's as simple as if they dont want my service that is their choice. There is tons of fish in the sea willing to pay money for a service that works well, that works fast, and doesnt have a clogged email. If you want those Junk mail boxes, please see www.hotmail.com and signup today!
