How much spam do I get?

[penk]

You think you get a lot of spam? I run a little stats report that keeps track of how much SpamAssassin identifies as spam (it gets sorted into another folder). I -rarely- have false positives, and I probably get 10-20 more into my inbox that are spam, but SA doesn't flag it.
