What do you suggest to fight these spams?

ClamAV is basically useless

no it is not, look at the sanesecurity foxhole signatures

how and why do get that much crap to that stage on the inbound server?

2 days ago we had a peak of 450000 junk attempts which is 10 time
higher than on normal days and nothing measurable made it to smtpd, not
talking about contentfilters at all

hence the virtual machine running the inbound MX still on 100-250 MHz


Inbound servers, 6 of them.  We are an ISP with 10s of thousands
accounts, plus content filtering for many other commercial domains

well, the domain in the last flood had 120000 accounts

the point is that valid accounts, even freemail can't spread that amout of spam and all the bots are listed on enough blacklists to make a foolproof score-based reject while most of them anyways not surivive pregreet-tests and the rest just hangs up after 10-11 seconds and don't surivive "postscreen_greet_wait = ${stress?2}${stress:12}s" which means a client ip has to wait once a week here 12 seconds to make it to smtpd

that all plays far far away from content-scanning and between that and the content-scanners are conditional greylistings, honeypot-backup-mx always responding with 450 and helo/ptr-checks combined with a spf-policyd

the comes spamassassin rejecting the surviving piece mostly if it contains malware or not and at the very end of the chain comes clamav-milter facing mostly ham and very few real remaining junk/malware
