Anybody Using Antispam Software That Works? - GoFuckYourself.com

I tried one a few months ago and it seemed like some good e-mails got "lost in cyberspace," meaning they neither ended up in my inbox nor in the deleted files folder, so I reluctantly removed it. I'd love know if there's a good one out there.

i use spamassassin but it's a server side solution instead of client.. Seems very effective so far..

We use spamassassin as well. It catches about 95% of the spam we get and flags good messages as spam only about 1% of the time. I'm very happy with it.

My ISP has a server side "solution," but it requires first-time senders to respond to an e-mail from the server. Obviously this can result in delays and annoyances to people I might want to hear from.
