Viruses and Spam

At the moment about 70% of the email I see in my inbox is either a spam or a virus. That's after server-side filtering and Thunderbird filtering. Suspicious that the server-side filtering wasn't working effectively, I checked up on the server. It turns out that since November 2005, 8.2GB of mail has been blocked. That's an awful lot of junk - about a gigabyte a month, and growing. Scary. Posted by savs at June 9, 2006 11:28 AM
