I used to run a service filtering mail for a couple of hundred thousand mailboxes, so I'm sure I saw a lot of stuff that people wouldn't see if they're just looking at their personal email.

Filtering just your own personal email is easy because you can do whatever you want and tune things exactly to your taste. Filtering for lots of other people is hard.

Someone I know who worked at postini had a lot of data showing gmail as the largest producer of spam at the time. Then Google bought them and refused to believe the data. *sigh*
