Re: OT: Frequency of SPAM

[Mikkoz <biffoz@gmail.com>]

Yep, the spam filter is awesome.  Once you label anything you
don't want in your inbox as "Spam" you don't see email from that source
anymore.

The Gmail labels and filters are just a metaphor for the folders and
rules in Outlook. I'm soooo happy to not have a local "manager" of
email traffic because it circumvents viruses running scripts on your
computer and local drives. 

I like the lightbulb comment Mark F. made.  I wasn't so sure for a
few weeks, but as soon as I began to explore the labels and filters
more carefully, I was able to route emails to their proper locations
(groups / folders / whatever) and my emails are super organized. More
so than they are at work where I'm forced to use Outlook. 
Waaaaaaayyyyyyy better.

But you know what's really awesome about Gmail? you see your mail instantly instead of waiting for hundreds of spam messages to be downloaded and filtered.
