Jason -- I handle the email/spam for three domains: xeper.org (NPO), contractorswarehouse.com (retail corporation), and menschel.net (family). Email load for the three domains combined is currently running between 6k and 7k spam per week, split pretty evenly among the three domains. Thanks to SpamAssassin 99.8% of that spam is caught and prevented from going to its intended victim. Bob Menschel
