Sorry, Oleg, you are incorrect. They don't filter anything. It all ends
up in my account. I see all the spam. I have to examine it myself before
I report it. The service itself doesn't report anything. Zero. Zip.
Zilch. The subscriber/member/enduser does all the reporting. And you
have to SEE the spam and know that you received a spam in order to
report it.
