Spam Identified

This graph is a count of messages determined to be spam. The shaded area includes all messages blocked by rules in your MTA (such as sendmail access rules, RBLs applied at the MTA etc.) as well as those detected by RBL checks in MailScanner and those with SpamAssassin scores greater than or equal to the Spam Score as defined by MailScanner. This includes High Scoring spam messages. The thin blue line indicates only the messages blocked at the MTA level, therefore the shaded are above the thin blue line can be thought of as the Spam detected by MailScanner and SpamAssassin. This graph can be monitored for extreme deviations but should rise about equally with the Number of Messages Processed graph on an average day. If you use MTA rules to block spam it is possible that this graph may be higher than the number of messages processed.
