Surge in Email Spam

I don't know about you but the number of spam mails I receive daily has definitely gone up in recent months. And I'm not just imagining it either. There has been a surge in spam.

Update: More on the surge in spam.

I did have ZERO SPAM until ActiveHost (my hosting provider) switched from IMail to another mail tool. Now I am inundated with SPAM. My email account with that host is useless, regardless of how I change the supposed spam-filtering/content-filtering rules. Nothing works. Gmail is much much better - catches ALL spam!

My server is catching roughly 90% of all incoming spam. That was good for a long time but now I receive approximately 1000 spam messages a day. With 10% making it to my Inbox it is becoming a real problem for me. I'm hoping Vertigo will help resolve most of the problems for me but that is still months away.
