No. It'd just increase a LOT, astronomically.
i suspect that, if we opened smtp relays again, unblocked 25 for consumer chokeband, etc., total spam received would likely increase a bit. but my guess, and i mean guess, is that the limiting parameter could well be how many bots the perps can get, not how well those bots are blocked.
i keep hearing that, but am having a hard time finding supporting data. randy
