We are sooo seeing this too. A lot of spam is getting through these
days, and re-checking only 15 minutes later shows tonnes of RBLs trigger
- but it's getting to us before it hits the RBLs

Greylisting would be the real solution to this situation, but our
commercial environment means we could not use that option. In fact,
greylisting even failed the "WAF test" on my home network: lasted two
days before I was forced to turn it off ;-)

I'd run up another copy of spamd on a different port - with a different
configuration where you disable all the bits you don't want. Then if the
network checks re-classify it as spam, you can re-learn it as spam using
the normal spamd so as to fix up to BAYES_00 scores it originally got

BTW, does it seem like Romania is a hot-bed at the moment? All this spam
seems to be from Romania with perfect DNS and SPF records for new
domains. Where's DOB when you need it ;-)
