I don't check the filters themselves (controlled by Google's GMail), but I do check the results of the filters - that is what gets labeled as spam.

I forward every single SPAM email to the Federal Trade commission for prosecution. If you live in the United States forward all SPAM to uce@ftc.gov it's how people like Ralsky end up in jail.

The "from" address is stolen from an address book. The "reply-to" address is the spammer's address.

If you took the time to read all your 419 spam, you'd know this.
