hi list,

got a whole series of spam (from africa?) on this list. never seen so many spam messages before. am i the only one? or not maybe?

Which spam do you mean?

I see in ma fetchmail log that it had downloaded 147618 messages between
2007-11-23 and 2007-12-01 and only 13400 legitim arrived my mailfolders...

Do you have not installed a mailfilter?

Hmm, not realy much spam currently... normaly I get arround 38000 per day.

Thanks, Greetings and nice Day
