[sniffer] Volume

[Peer-to-Peer (Spam-Filter.com)]

Just touching base with the list here.

 

We're seeing a significant spike in traffic which started a few days ago.
Today's volume is double / triple the norm.

 

Anyone else seeing the same?

Pete posted a link via twitter that there is a bot that is changing
addresses every 20 minutes and sending out large volumes of spam. 

 

I haven't seen it in my own stats yet. J

The spamtrap pre-filter volume is about 4x typical. It's really quite 
something.


The stock-push stuff has a lot to do with it -- since that's become 
popular again we've seen striking volumes associated with it.
