I just ran my monthly e-mail statistics and these are the results:

97,000 msgs/day inbound

8,800 msgs/day delivered to end users - 9%

22,200 msgs/day quarantined as spam - 23%

66,000 msgs/day blocked as spam - 67%

This month had higher than normal quarantine activity. Quarantine has been running about 15% and blocking around 75%.  How does your mail stack up?

Thanks for your time. Let’s be good network citizens together & practice safe networking!
