Yes always - as much and as fast as you can - but don't make it a burden. The only explanation I have so far for your experience is that you're getting these messages as fast or faster than we are - so they get through during the lag. Everything we can do to speed up the process and reduce the lag is a good thing. For example, we are in the process of adding additional AI to our rule generation system so that new rules are generated within minutes of when we see them - provided the AI can safely identify them. (we still review every rule though ;-). Another thing we are doing is concentrating more heavily on abstracted heuristics that can capture messages we've never seen before... and that's helping - but no such predictive mechanism can be perfect.

If you are sure that these addresses were never legitimate then you can create aliases for them and redirect those aliases to a collection point on our system. This will put those messages directly into our spam processing queue with the minimum lag. I'm not sure if you already have any spamtraps set up with us - I'm thinking not - but if you're interested in setting this up let me know and I will create a unique collection point for you to use. At the very least this will reduce the lag. Hope this helps, _M This E-Mail came from the Message Sniffer mailing list.
