Lking Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 Did I miss a comment about the lack of Server Status? Or is it just broken, again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saturated Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 I know, of itself it's not serious, but the graphs of server reporting status stopped working almost 24 hours ago. I haven't seen any mention of it in the newsgroups or forums. It always alarms me when this happens. It makes me think nobody is looking to see things are working. Sometimes it just starts working again. Sometimes my mail disappears for a fortnight. Please humour me. I'm a helpless neurotic, but only because of bitter experience. And I like the pretty graphs, which reassure me I'm not the only one deluged with multiple copies of incomprehensible cyrillic nonsense. Merged here from a separate topic by Steve T.

Farelf Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 Reminiscent of http://forum.spamcop.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=12503 but the spam counts have also fallen over this time. "nan messages per second". Well, "nan" is not Elbonian so I suppose that's a good thing. JT / support e-mailed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dra007 Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 Strange things happen, I also noticed an anomalous behavior of opening the held mail page, maybe things are breaking down, if only imperceptibly so! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lisati Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 I'm penciling in "glitch" - about 13 hours ago, my server accepted an email that was delivered by one of Spamcop's servers, but didn't make any sense: no sign in my email logs of any outgoing mail that could have triggered it.

Farelf Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 OK, other observations may be useful but after a brief stutter the stats chart is slowly winding up again without the "catch-up" spike often seen (no definite/sustained reporting interruptions noted and indeed it seems there were none).

Lking Posted April 10, 2013 Author Share Posted April 10, 2013 Yes, all seems well. Glad I am not running a service watched/analyzed by a gaggle of geeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saturated Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 The graphs have died again! (At least for me.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farelf Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 Me too - reporting seems to be working though. Problem notification sent to support. [edit] (Case 51137) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farelf Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 Last word was that this had been referred to JT himself and shortly after that advice the graph re-started. Several hours later, it is still working. Calling it "fixed". Thanks JT! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spamnophobic Posted July 3, 2013 Share Posted July 3, 2013 Goodness the levels have fallen since I last looked. Are we winning? What I still get in terms of "Rianna Lovelya, about your e-mail" type filth suggests that spam is becoming positively old fashioned...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farelf Posted July 3, 2013 Share Posted July 3, 2013 Medium-term, we seem to have dropped about half relative to the levels before the reverted parser update prior to the last (successful) update. That may be due to factors other than declining member reports (or partly so at least) - the missing spikes from Fri, Sat, Sun last dragging down this week's average for instance look like something else. Ð…pam comes in many varieties but it seems the fragmentation of IPv4 netspace might indeed be encouraging a resurgence of retro-styles through hardened hosting using evolved botnet-operated (but owned-address hosting) - as just one approach. Fortunately spamfighting comes in many varieties these days too. SC still has the fairly-well unique constant early-warning role and capability (and keeps the bar raised against lazy spammers) within that patchy-variable arsenal of defence, IMO, despite approaching Methuselah status in internet time-scales. A lot of spammers have come and gone ... a lot of spam "development cycles" have turned through their courses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
