I've been getting bombed since last weekend (an extra 30,000 spams last
week). Luckily, Trash Finder Pro has been keeping up with it. (Since these
people are bombing everyone, they get onto the SURBL really quick, so the
messages don't go any further than TF Pro.)

I can't usefully use the user blocking features of SMPTRCV, so that's a good
thing.
(One word of warning to TF users: if you have SCSMFilter set for too many
threads, its possible for TF instances to run out of memory. They then
report error code 5 to SCSMFilter, which assumes that means the message is
OK. I found that out last weekend when the mail bombing started. On my
system, 4 threads works, 6 didn't. More threads is preferable, but no so
many so that it doesn't work.)
