Sorry for jumping in on that thread late ...
We were affected by this "storm" (mass relaying though CZ servers) as
they abuse two domains of customers of ours, for which we do backup MX.
When the inject started the primary MX gave up quickly and we'd got all

It probably would also be cool to have a cdb for vitualdomains, just
