I believe I can explain this phenomena. Over weekends and holidays folks stop submitting spam to us, so the only things we can tag are those that hit our spamtraps. I've notices quite a drop in the amount of spam we've been receiving - though the filter rate and volume at our servers is still very high (filtering 90+% of 35K/day - very little monitored spam getting through). I'm looking for some ways to increase the breadth of our spamtraps so that this cyclic drop can be mitigated... _M This E-Mail came from the Message Sniffer mailing list.
