I suppose you can make this statement because you use Spam Assassin + mutt, so can page through your spam as fast as you can press command keys. Since I use gmail, and it takes a couple of seconds to turn the page, my false positives are generally just dead to me unless mail I'm expecting has gone missing; I'm going to wade through that swamp unless I truly have to.
You'd think so, but due to some of the brokenness in Terminal.app's handling of wide-chars it makes viewing my spam box nearly impossible. And with 8000 spams, looking for false positives isn't all that reasonable even with mutt (I mean, that's close to 300 spams a day). It just happened that when I was paging back through to find out how many I'd gotten I saw a few messages that had been misclassified.
(In particular, an ad from a company that I've bought from in the past and a CC payment notice.)
Ah, so it's not just MY mutt and terminal settings that are doing that.
something seemed to change in terminal app recently that makes it harder to read through the spam. It can really foul up the entire screen for me. Gah... then I have to page through in message redaing mode and just look at the subject lines:
