Actually, I'm pretty pleased that my DSL line seems to be handling this:

[root@genesis chugga]# cat /var/log/maillog | grep 'mail2' | wc
  67210 537808 7303683

That's just through about 6 pm today.

I sent an email with a copy of /var/log/maillog to the offending site today,
along with a politely worded suggestion that they perhaps have an email worm.

Pretty much predictably, the web site,
philanthropyroundtable.org[67.154.207.154], is on a IIS server.
