We're running 125,000 to 140,000 messages/day with around 30,000 mailboxen. Yes, 
there's trouble but there's no blame implied... 

Two things have happened. One is that we had to shut off incoming virus scanning to 
keep the imail box stable for more than a few hours at a time. The other, 
unexpectedly, is that we've been contacted by two spam/IP listing services and told 
we're their heaviest name server user. One politely asked us to make changes. The 
other is doing a hit/miss study on us.

Over the last 10 days we've scanned (f-prot) 6,500 - 14,000 outbound messages a day 
with infection numbers ranging between 15% and 28%. 

Here's a sample stat for those of us who stare at numbers...

Total Emails Scanned = 14,116
Total Emails Clean   = 11,365
Total Emails Infected= 2,751
Percent of Emails Infected
