Hi Madscientist, As I can understand we have a different situation here. I have no statistics about this but after weeks of research in smtp- declude- and spamchk-logfiles I'm 100% sure that we will never reach such a value.
Assuming that with our current settings (declude + blacklists + spamchk) we're catching only 50% of all spams, (I'm sure the real value is appreciably higher) you can simply double the values in the ratio-diagramm of our spam-report. Then we have a max value of 60% during weekends and 20% during workdays.
