Pete:
We have a regional based trap running post-Sniffer. When Sniffer hiccups
(or we've done something to cause it to hiccup) there are thousands of mails
in it over the space of a few hours, almost all spam.
There is no increase there overnight so our rulebases are definitely still
working as expected.
On that note, we ended up having to go to the RC code very early this year
because of the increasing high levels of spam getting through the last
release version. I know this shouldn't have been the case but in that final
RC version we were running the leakage was fairly significant,
(approximately 40 times what it was in a typical night like last night for
example). The rule base updates were working and all mail was getting
vetted but some part of the magic you do didn't seem to be working. We
waited a week or so following your release notice for 3.0 to install it and
found an immediate reduction in spam to the sort of levels you were
achieving for us a year or so ago (adjusted a little for the increased level
of what's out there today vs. a year ago).
All appears to be well here.
No reply necessary.
Thanks for a great product.

Subject: [sniffer] Upgraded Rulebase Delivery System
Hello Sniffer Folks,
Early this morning we completed significant upgrades to our rulebase
delivery system yielding a 10 fold increase in available bandwidth and
a 5 fold increase in delivery transaction rates.
Please let us know if you observe any negative or positive effects.
From observations and theory rulebases should be delivered more
quickly and more frequently.
I will continue to monitor the system closely for any aberrations.
Thanks,
_M
