How interesting. Perhaps it's just coincidence, but immediately after posting 
this, the deluge, if you?d call it that, stopped.

I?ve gotten a few late bounces from full mailboxes and down mail servers etc, 
but the active sending has stopped.

Either the bot-net got hosed, or someone was reading here and stopped it. 

FYI: The spam, or whatever it was, was all Russian, going to virtually all .ru 
domains. Since I couldn?t read it, I was hard pressed to find out where to 
start to combat it.

Anyway. Thanks all for the tips, and I?m just glad to be through it. (Next time 
I?ll post a lot quicker. If I?m lucky, the hooligans are going to take note and 
get me off the hamster wheel!)

Cheers,
Greg
