a pretty serious issue? really? half-joking, are your internets
getting stuck in your tubes because of all the Chinese emails?
admittedly, I'm not a full-time mailserver admin, but I've asked the
question before, why it's worth more of your time (or hiring someone)
to sort categorize spam from other email rather than just throwing
more bandwidth at the problem?
maybe this is how shanghai and the rest of the world (who have
affordable fibre optic internet upstreams) prefer to deal with spam --
just ignore it. and the only reason USA residents get a bee in their
bonnet is because they don't have bandwidth parity?
