George how did you pull those stats together? Did you use the same log
analyser as mentioned in this list?

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
to Total Emails Scanned:  19.4885%

Count= 1,092            Virus Name=  W32/Badtrans.B@mm
Count= 798              Virus Name=  W32/Hybris.worm.B
Count= 695              Virus Name=  W32/Sircam.worm@mm
Count= 51               Virus Name=  W32/Hybris.worm.D
Count= 49               Virus Name=  W32/Magistr.28672@mm
Count= 47               Virus Name=  W32/Magistr.32768@mm
Count= 17               Virus Name=  W32/Aliz.A
Count= 1                Virus Name=  JS/Kak.A@m
Count= 1                Virus Name=  W32/MTX.9244.worm.A
