Spam Volume Dropped Significantly
After a reporter started to investigate Spam occurrence and the link to a few US based hosting companies and provides he was able to shut down the operation in co-operation with other backbone providers. The result is a significant drop in worldwide spam occurrence since then.
For mail servers I administrate I was able to shut down 2 of 3 SpamAssassin instances due to no work for them to do. Let’s hope this will stay this way for a while.
