Google, Where Is Your Quality? (Cannot Use GMail Any More!)
GMail is my everyday tool since Summer 2004, when it helped me to forget worrying about how many different computers I use, to feel comfortable using either one of my laptops, or my PC or any of my workstations. It’s cool because I can boot fresh Ubuntu installation (using Ubuntu CD as a LiveCD) and feel myself not bad.
But now, GMail becomes completely unusable for me. Spam, spam, SPAM! GMail antispam system seems to be not working any more. Russian spam is not under its control for months, look at my primary @gmail.com account:
But the next page of my Inbox shows that English spam is not being filtrated properly too!
You see? Only one real message for entire page!
That really hurts. I’m considering migration to Yandex or even to Mail.ru for my personal account, but I really don’t know what to do with many hosted (Google Apps, I use it for samokhvalov.com, for example) installations. I feel myself really bad using those accounts but currently don’t see any suitable alternative 
Definitely, the main GMail’s problem here is inability to fight with Russian spam. I even don’t consider here the main problem of any more or less good antispam system, False Positives. No, I get used not to wonder when somebody asks why I’m not answering . “You’ve sent me a message? Oh, really? Sorry, it must be f*** Google antispam… Please re-send it, and I’ll answer ASAP!” Errrr, my Spam folder has too many messages, I have no time to find not-spam there!
And you know what? I will not press SPAM button anymore, I do not see that it helps to improve anything! Before, if I messed Archive and Spam buttons I always corrected myself. But for what?.. I don’t trust such pages: http://www.google.com/mail/help/fightspam/spamexplained.html at all.
