Well

I knew it was only a matter of time, but I am now recieving more spam per minute than my server can handle.

I checked my mail queue today and it was 102 waiting to be processed and delivered. By the time it had got the queue down to 58, it had downloaded another 17 and pushed it up again. Sure, it'll catch up eventually, and I'm assigning another process to max out the cpu and help it clear the backlog, but with nearly 7000 spams a day and only 3 or 4 real e-mails (and even those are mostly mailing lists), almost 1.5gb of spam a month is not really very funny.
