This should make you happier then:

Number of emails in January rejected by my server either because they are
spam or they are some silly Microsoft Email client worm: 319
Number of emails in January rejected in post-processing because they
are spam: 180
Number of emails received by server: 8552
Number of emails received by me: 6648
(so my wife gets just under 2000 I guess)

So just under 4% of mails to my server are junk, and of the ones that
get through that filter just under 3% of those emails are spam.
BTW, my killfile killed 10 mails. I esimate I get about 6 spams through
all my filters a day.
