FastMail spam filters and Bayes learning as done WONDERS for my account which used to get hundreds of spam a day. Bayes has learned 8242 spam and I was down to seing almost none (spam on "agressive" setting), but now, over the past week I've seen a sharp spike in spam received (passed). I verified that spam learning is running each day on my learning folder. Setup and everything seems OK.

I guess I'm just making sure this sharp rise in spam is an anomaly and no one else is having problems, ie, the spam and bayes systems are working ok as well as your spam setting ("normal" vs "agressive")

What I'm seeing is almost as if I had changed my spam setting from "aggressive" to "normal." (but spam setting does show "aggressive.")

Does your spam settings/system seem to be working normally for you?
