Spam from .us domains

[Philip Parsons]

Yeah that's the one's not certain if someone has written a SA rule or something to catch without having to rely on the RBLS as hundreds get through before the RBLS catchup...

If it's the same stuff I am seeing, then the spam is getting sent out from fresh ips and newly (same day) registered domains. It's getting delivered prior to the RBLs becoming aware of the new sources.

For example, today I got spam from russianbrides-dating-great.me only 6-7 hours after the domain was registered. I won't get any tomorrow, because now it's in the RBLs and will be blocked.
