When I check mail in the morning I have about 5 spam mails in my inbox. Even some from Viagra. Even worse, the number of false positives (ham classified as spam) has also been increasing so that I now at least once a day have to resort to looking for legitimate mail in my spam folder. For a spam filter this is the worst case scenario. Actually it seems like Gmail has trouble categorizing spam as seen below. I hope it’s only a UI bug, but something deeper down is definately rotten.
