[QUOTE="MacInWin, post: 1935109, member: 396914"] Ah, if only that really happened for me. For me, SS handles about 70% of the spam, but the remainder get through. For those that get through, I mark them, it removes them for that day, but the next day those same spammers get past SS again. I know it's never possible to be perfect, and 70% is better than nothing, but from my experience I think it's a bit strong (and demonstrably false in my case) to say "never...again." And it does seem to be the same spammers over and over. For the last week or so I have been getting between 4 and 10 a day telling me my cloud storage is full (it's not) and that Apple will delete all my photos as a result (They won't because I have plenty of room.) I mark each and every one as spam, and SS never blocks them beyond that. Today it was various emails about McAfee wanting me to "Confirm Your Final Decision!" I got six of those. SS caught none of them. At least the cloud storage folks seemed to have stopped! It wasn't SS because there aren't any of the cloud storage in the Spam folder today. I'm really glad it's working so well for others, though! Before anybody starts to try to "help," I don't really care. I've "trained" SS on thousands of emails, and it doesn't improve beyond about 70%. Maybe I have a "better" set of spammers? :D [/QUOTE]
