theinquirer.net— While Gmail managers to filter out a lot of Spam, it seems lots of blatant Spam emails are getting through the filters, despite masses of the mails getting reported as Spam.

i am getting 100+ spam on my gmail accounts every day. it is getting so bad i am nearly about to switch away from gmail. my basyian filters i added to outlook did far, far better. i hope they get on the ball.
It is amusing to read how people want Gmail to be more like Yahoo Mail or Hotmail, yet, when Gmail was introduced the same people were attracted to how it was different from Yahoo or Hotmail. How times change.As to spam, I get a couple a week and they all are marked as Spam. I'm not sure how the Google Spam filter is failing if any spam that gets "through" the system ends up marked as Spam?
I'm noticing some Spam "leaks" but its still the best filter I've found. I run ALL my mail through a Gmail account before it gets to my Blackberry and I now get no spam on it.
