Spammer's list may be short
pchelp
Just now for the first time I began "greping" the mailbomb for
repetition. I find hundreds, sometimes more than 1,000 emails have been
sent to the same addresses.
It is possible the forged spam is being intentionally sent and re-sent
to a known-bad list of email addresses, just for the purpose of
generating the rejection messages that I and three others are receiving.

I noticed repetition back when I was still looking at them.

You, me, Davidovv -- who else? I have 4960 of them now, 24+
megabytes. How come Davidovv is ahead of me?

Abujamal,
I'm getting them on two addys related to our website - this one
and another one. They are coming in right now 4-6 (at each addy)
every 2 minutes. (that's a heck of data).

That's what I have, too. I sent the following just now:
- -------- Original Message --------
To: ab...@recham.ernet.in,ab...@kyelinux.kyelinux.geniusnet.com.hk,
ab...@ns.itochu.co.in
Subject: SPAM EMAIL BOMBS
Salaam!
Gentlemen, in the last twelve hours some twenty thousand emails
have been sent from the following three accounts to four recipients
in the United States and Australia:
k...@recham.ernet.in
wa...@kyelinux.kyelinux.geniusnet.com.hk
al...@ns.itochu.co.in
and they are continuing to come in as I write. It appears that some
members of the Sub-Seven trojan writers club who work for or in
support of a fraudulent security software vendor in New Hampshire,
Michael Paris, who is in federal court against a software critic who
exposed his software, Lockdown2000, have caused these three accounts
to redirect all incoming "returns" from a spam attack to the four
recipients. I have received 5,027 spam emails since midnight Pacific
Daylight Time (-0700).
Please secure your servers against teenagers who appear to own
them at the moment.
was-salaam,
abujamal
So you all can correct any errors in this and follow up.
This is funny.

Wayne / DiamondCS

haven't been paying much attention to it :-)
But yep I've got some from those email addresses listed below...

The frequency/speed maybe related to the mail server which receiving the mails. The outgoing server has a limited amount of connection it uses so it has to spread according to the received mails/connections.

Well, that's crass discrimination! If anyone should get the
lion's share, it's Keith, who is the star of this show. After that I
suppose it's up for grabs who should get the biggest bunch after
that, but the numbers seem completely disproportionate -- can't this
kid add? Who do we complain to about this unfair distribution of
email bombs?
I mean, this is my first -- I've had people send me virus and
trojan attachments, but this is much more fun. Is there a club we
can join to get these things regularly?
I have 5,102 now, but this disproportionate distribution thing ...
