Subject: [Declude.JunkMail] Spam Spike
Hi All,
We have recently gone from processing 30,000 emails daily to 85,000 daily.
75,000 are getting caught by Declude & Message Sniffer (I love this
combo). There are a total of 300,000 attempted RCPT TOs daily.
1) Has anyone experienced recent spikes like this? How can I reasonably
handle this?
I have run several analytics and found that these emails are not targeting
a specific user or specific domain. Additionally, there are no blocks of
IPs that are responsible.
2) What are the realistic limits of Imail / Declude / Message Sniffer (I
KNOW this is platform specific, just looking for ballpark).
3) What can I do to squeze out more juice from this server?
Software: IMail 8.22 (because we are still scared of 2006), Declude Virus
and Junkmail 2.0.6, and Sniffer most recent version
Hardware: Windows Server 2003 box with a 3 ghz XEON, and 1 Gig ram.
Thanks for the help! -Chris
