---- Gmail spam detection is utter garbage

You get 800 spam a day and you dont think there's a problem?

On hotmail you dont get near as much spam because it much more accurate and deletes it at source.

On Gmail you gave to spend 30 mins per day going through the spam as you get far too many false positives.

Where are the "Safe lists"?
The label system used to work but now the filters dont even work on the labels anymore.

Where is the catch all filter rule?

Gmail fans boys, keep telling yourself its better than hotmail. Im glad I switched back as I only spend 3 mins looking at my mail compared to the 30+.

Oh and the people who only get 5-10 spam per day wont see a problem as your not heavy users.
