Unfortunately for me, I'm stuck with the other 96%.
I would say "Fortunately for me, Google is stuck with the rest."
About once a year, spammers find a way around Google's spam filters for 3-4 weeks, which means I might see a non-flagged spam message show up in my mailbox every couple of days. Beyond that, I don't even think about spam anymore (including worrying about false positives, which I haven't seen in years [if at all]).
Above and beyond everything else positive or negative about Google, this one thing will cause me to always have a warm place in my heart for Google.

- SoftwareMaven 16y agoIronically, I looked in my spam folder today just to see what percentage were the ".ru" type and...found a message from Twitter that got delivered yesterday saying how they are going to switch to OAuth on 8/31 (Really, twitter, a month late? [and it wasn't Google, since I got the message for two accounts for two email addresses yesterday]).
