Heh, lovely -- ISP's who know so much better than you they do not even
need to bother telling you what they are doing.
Still, I find my emailing faster and more pleasant now that I started
filtering on the server. The false positives have not changed. What
has changed is that most email downloads are much faster, and I do not
have to do a "compact" as often to get rid of all the spams. On the
downside, when I do have a false positive, I have to retrieve it off
of the server instead of out of the .spam folder. That is not a big
deal compared to avoiding downloading all of the true spams.
