With the holiday shopping season upon us it should come as no surprise that the spammers have greatly increased their efforts to reduce your Email to a useless pile of junk. The Advanced Spam Protection filters have averaged 1.1 million filtered spams daily for the last 20 days - and the filters blew past the 1 million mark at 9:30am this morning. We're on pace to see the filters deal with 2.5+ million today alone. Protect your email and enable the Advanced Spam Protection filters on your mailboxes.
Update: Just as an FYI we wildly underestimated the spam surge. It was much, much worse than what we thought it was going to be. The total count for November 19th was in line with our normal daily average at 1,096,933 messages filtered as spam. For November 20th, the date we posted the above advisory? 6,196,757
