Watch out for today's spam storm -- it's a lot bigger than we've seen
in a long while. 48 hour image attached.
This has low priority but. I've tried to find a live version of that
graph you've sent but I cannot find it at
Nothing too out of the ordinary here - ~17,000 blocked messages between
10-11 AM EST. Yesterday same time frame was ~16,000.

This is question is a little off subject, but do you have any
recommendations for Imail queue manager settings? We are running Sniffer
with declude 1.82 under Imail 8.15 and the server seems to bog down
sometimes.
Thanks,
Glenn

The messages look generally like the kind of jobs

Wget on windows + errors on the Sprint line since the move = corrupted
downloads for folks who end up routing through sprint along the way?

Well it may not be a spam storm. Log file shows:

This has been a bad week here!

Big uptick of new and broken spam.
Half way through the day and already at 445 new rules.
