Thanks Gary. That makes total sense. Unfortunately the file definitely
wasn't protected in any way, so this incident is still a bit of a mystery.
On a related matter, however, am I correct in thinking that if a graylisted
sender resends after the -min interval but fails to pass another filter
Faris,
I thought there was a spamdyke flowchart somewhere, but my mind must be
playing tricks because I couldn't find it.
Logically, it would seem to me that order would be:

graylist entries older than 15 days (empty files empty
directories)
find /var/qmail/antispam/graylist/ -type f -mtime +15 -print
My graylists do get constantly pruned but others seem to have old ones
remaining. Then again, my graylist-max-secs is set to 1296000 (one day)
which is probably shorter than most.
