Is it just me, or has the spam increased lately? I get 10 x what I used to suddenly..

I haven't noticed an increase yet.

No noticeable increase in my account either.

OK, thanks. I guess a few more email harvesters has gotten ahold of my address(es) from some source out of my control.

I did see an increase in spam later today. Ironically it may be due to some work being done to improve spam filtering. Kim is going to post an update as he has the details.

Yes, we are changing RBL provider. It will most likely be updated by tomorrow.

I too have been seeing a massive increase in spam. Most of it going to the trash bin, but not all of it. I used to get maybe 5 a day and then all of a sudden starting about 3-4 days ago my trash had like 100 spam in it

You should really route spam to a folder called Spam and keep it separate from Trash. You can set your spam folder in the Manager - Filter page.
