Sounds like 50% spam?  That's not too bad, really.  That's my guess anyway.

We just cutover to a new Exchange server last night. The old server runs 
Forefront 10.2, the new server is running Forefront 2010. Both are Exchange 
2007 SP3.

The new Forefront interface has a lot more information. In the spam details 
screen, there's a field called "Messages Processed by Connection Filtering". It 
put me in a bit of a panic this morning, when it showed 9,932 messages 
processed and 9,521 Messages Blocked by DNS Block List. Our spam ratio might be 
high but that seemed impossible. I've reset the counters now it's showing 101 
processed and 100 blocked by the DNS block list. Farther down 1 message is 
blocked by SMTP filtering.

Answering the obvious question, we're getting email and no one is complaining 
of things not going through.

I'm guessing that these are poorly labeled numbers. Is "Messages processed by 
Connection Filtering" really a counter of only the blocked messages?
