Kind of nice since it is dedicated to meteorites and nothing else- until today. 24 messages so far were isolated into the Bulk spam box- all with the Sobig F virus attached. Look to be about 98-102K big. Some of the message from addresses had a reference to this meteorite list. Thats the scary part.
