MyDdoom Causes Havoc All Over

Not only did MyDoom have fun with our university's mail servers, but the mail servers of our web host, Digital Partners, were getting hit as well, slowing them down to a crawl, I hear. In a somewhat related note, Eric tells me that DP is looking into spam software to install of their mail servers. This is something I asked for some time ago because of the amount of spam we get to The BG News listproc. I am really glad they are looking into this, because it is getting to be an annoying problem that almost half the emails to the list are spam.
