Hi David,
Thanks for contributing over the past few years. Did you shut down the spam
trap or just the nightly mass check? If you don't have the resources to keep it
going, I might be interested in taking over all or part of it. Perhaps others
on here might be interested as well.
ThanksKent

I recently had to shutdown our ena-weekX masscheck processing which was the
vast majority of the corpus. I think our spam trap was keeping the nightly
ruleQA going the past few years.

See the message below. Also related errors reported to both the sysadmins and

At first I thought this was entirely secondary to the DDoS aimed at sa-vm. I
did a couple rounds of mass blocking of network ranges doing bad things, but it
seems that there is likely also just a lack of masscheck logs coming in.
Anyone have ideas for how to fix this?
