Is it just me or isn't Yahoo mail getting MUCH BETTER in filtering spam? - GoFuckYourself.com

I used to get TONS of spam in my Yahoo mail inbox. Now, it's just 1 or 2 every other day. Most of the stuff that does get through are sent from WITHIN the yahoo mail system itself. Does this mean Yahoo's using a new outside mail server filter like Brightmail?

no change for me for the past 200 months or so, 2 spam mails in the inbox, 100 or so a day in the bulk folder

90% of the Bulk folder comes from the Whatever F. Kunt spammer, which I suspect is on of us (GFYers), Whatever F. Kunt - if you're reading this, I say thank you for all the mails that you had sent to me in the past couple of months

Yep. Most spam is correctly routed to the bulk folder. Much much better than last year or at anytime before.

Yea, I have Yahoo and Hotmail...both do a pretty good job filtering crap from my inbox. Sometimes they catch things I wish they wouldn't...

The gmail spam filter is still the most advanced of them all, me thinks.

Yahoo surely is getting better at filtering spam. Also have other improvements. Very nice.
