Right, and? I have a server with 5 000+ users on it ... if each of them receives 10 messages a day, then 'content_filter' gets the joy of processing 50k messages ... if 10% of those users want spam filtering enabled, its now processing 40k *more* messages then it has to ... which is going to affect performance of the server ...
