I actually noticed ramp up to the holiday, followed by a large increase
over the holiday weekend.
The most popular single spam involved a city in France and a hotel
chain. This even beat out
the ever popular enhancement of body parts category.

BTW, has anyone else seen the ridiculous increase in spam that I have? A
few days before Thanksgiving my inbound mail increased from around 400,000
a day to over 2 million messages a day. I died back down over the holiday
weekend but has picked back up now. I guess the spammers took
Thanksgiving off too. Over the years it has been common for us to get
more spam during Christmas, but not like this. I guess everyone is taking
up spamming as a way to make extra Christmas money.
