Hi Barry,

I do think there's been an increase in spam traffic across the board.
I'm not certain what's caused it; if anything, I've increased the spam
filtering capabilities of the mail server. I think we may have just
gotten on some bad spam lists. I have a couple ideas of how to make our
filtering tougher; I'll see if I can implement one or two in the next
few days and I'll come back to the list here for feedback on any
improvement.
