No Bayes or RBL Checks !

Hi, I am having real problems in getting SA 3.2.0 to perform Bayes or RBL checks. For some reason they just do not fire at all. If I run a lint there are no warnings and all pre-requisities are okay. What could I be doing wrong ? All worked fine on 3.1.8. I have even tried a clean install to

Massive Spam Attack?

Greetings, I'm seeing incoming spam at a rate of 2-3 a minute per user and I'm having trouble properly identifying these as spam with spamassassin. Or, alternatively, blocking them. It appears that each mail is sent by a unique IP, so it doesn't look like a simple firewall rule will stop this.
