Exactly! We got a bunch over the last several days about different celebrities and their diets too! We've always been reluctant to block on keywords because of the potential to block legitimate e-mails since we have professors from all over the world. It's so frustrating and the users think that we've just opened the gates- they don't understand.

We've been getting a ton of messages in what appears to be Russian. I have no idea what they say or what they're about, but they're very annoying. We've been trying to block them, but it's difficult when you don't know the language and what keywords to have the spam filter search for. And, of course, the email addresses and domains are constantly changing.

Have any of you seen a marked increase in the amount of SPAM that's getting through to users over the last couple of weeks? Our Barracudas are blocking as many as 9,000 SPAM messages an hour, but a ton of junk is still getting through!
