Hello,

        Murray's email made me realize that I have not seen a web pharmacy spam 
message for a few weeks.  I do have a Netgear ST-150 Web/Email filtering box 
but I still was seeing 5-10 Viagra messages get through each week.

        I do believe that either spam is down of the RBLs we are using have 
been updated.  I will check my logs.

Well, the volume is so low that most of the Viagra and other similar
types are gone. As an example of volume, normally I receive somewhere
between 300 and 500 items per day. But about 2 weeks ago, it was in the
thousands per day. Then, this week, it's dropped to less than 100 per
day. That's why I brought the subject up. Is it just mee or is it the
World? 


Murray

It's not too surprising really; every site's spam, including sources of
the spam, is different.  I haven't heard of any major botnet takedowns,
but you never know.

I guess the real question is, have you noticed a particular type of spam
that has dropped off?  Lately we've been getting a lot more pharma spam
from the freemail providers.
