High spam catch rates continue in latest spam filter test

US presidential candidates regularly see their emails blocked by spam filters.

Yet again, there was good news for most participants in the bi-monthly VBSpam spam filters tests: spam catch rates for most products remained very high.

There was good news when it came to false positives too. Solutions blocked few to no emails from the corpus of regular legitimate emails, and few 'newsletters' too. This resulted in 14 VBSpam awards, with no fewer than eight
products — Bitdefender, Egedian, ESET, FortiMail, Kaspersky, modusGate, SpamTitan and ZEROSPAM — earning a VBSpam+ award.
