Nah. If you're receiving that kind of mail volume, you have big
machines with under-utilized CPUs anyway. Content-scanning just uses
up CPU cycles that would be wasted. Nik Clayton says he filters
2 million messages/day with SpamAssassin; I'd be amazed if fewer
than 100K of those are spam.
It's about 280,000 a day at the moment. Which is roughly 25% of our
inbound mail volume. That's a combination of locally maintained
blacklists and SpamAssassin -- no network tests (RBL, etc) are in use.
Because of our current mail architecture, that figure of 280,000 doesn't
include messages that will eventually bounce due to being misaddressed.
