Confirmed. A friend of mine had this problem too (It isn't me, I swear! :) ) The worse is that he uses the simple antispam engine embedded into MDaemon... His server seemed simply unable to handle the big quantity of inbound messages. This happened yesterday and today morning (CET). Now it seems that the mail flux stopped. I wonder what effect are the senders tring to obtain...
