[ ... ] 30.000 domains (from personal sites to large traffic ones), only virus / spam filtering and then relaying the mail to the "webservers" for imap/pop/webmail access. BL rejecting makes a 70% of inbound mail for top 30 of them, but still a hell lot of spam passes and SA just can't handle the load. My dspam experience is manly with corporate LANs and such, not ISP installs. -- IOnut Unregistered ;) FreeBSD "user"
