In the last 6 months or so, our spam volume has tripled as I am sure it has
for many of you.  For the month of November, we topped out at over 110,000
spam emails into the company (yea for us?).  80,000+ were outright
/dev/null'd for the obvious potty language, appendage enhancement, etc, etc.
and SA then tagged another 30,000+ as probable spam.  At around 10 seconds
of employee time wasted per spam, we saved ~300 labor-hours in November.

One year ago, I took a clunker of a P-III/450 and installed a strange and
mystical Operating System called Linux.  Open Source opened my eyes, and
showed me the light to a better way.  Regular folk wrote FAQ's, and
How-to's, and Recipes, the bread crumbs of Open Source, so those who would
follow could also find their way.  Others added their own special
ingredients - a pinch of backhair, a dash of weeds, a handful of popcorn.
The awesome powers of Big Huge Evil were summoned.  The Spammers trembled.
And it was good.

Thank you all for another great year of SpamAssassin!
