OL 2003 with latest Office Update for Junk Mail

[Todd]

Yesterday I downloaded the latest automatic update for Outlook 2003
pertaining to Junk Mail filtering. Prior to the update, using Cached
Exchange Mode and a HIGH junk Mail filter setting, OL caught virtually 100%
of the spam. Now, it catches significantly less.

What gives MS?

Not sure... but FWIW, others noticed the same thing.

I think it goes back to which emails Microsoft defines as a junk email. What is junk to you is not to others...not sure if Microsoft gets any kind of feedback about "false positives" and "false negatives" - but am sure if they do, they probably use this to fine tune the algorithm that determines this...
