Looks like it settled down to only a 6x increase over 24 hours. Seems to be sustained, though...across all domains.
Good thing is with some simple tweaks we're not seeing any more than normal slip through, so our catch rate looks to be 99.5% or better....and no more false positives than normal, so that % goes down correspondingly.to well under 0.5% of held or deleted potential spam....but it's still a lot more to review manually...we'll probably quit that if it keeps up much longer. I see the spike never really materialized on your end. Anyone else see a spike in zombie spam?
