In the past 3 days or so, we are seeing lots of SPAM that used to be caught NOT being caught. Wondering if anyone else is seeing that, too?

I learned today that my payment to the IRS did not go through. I can't even remember making a payment. Glad they left a handy link for me! All I had to do was click it and give them my SSN and bank routing number! Slick!

We've had a lot of spam coming through the Postini quarantine in the last few months--a lot of fake Intuit/Apple orders, lots of viagra spam, I'm not protected by Norton, etc.

Unfortunately Postini already nabs some legitimate emails, too.  So I hate to increase the level of filtering.  

As a note, we subscribe to Postini's archiving, which means we have to keep using their quarantine service, as Google hasn't integrated archiving customers yet.
