Spam making a comeback??

[r]

Seems like the level of spam is increasing in the last week, and today
has been bad. How are the spambytes coming along?

Spambayes is doing fine, but it only filters spam for the mailing list. It
has no effect on the Usenet side of things (comp.lang.python).

It does, however, affect the gmane.comp.lang.python newsgroup, which is
very clean now. Thank you. (And items posted through gmane are
apparently sent to the mailing list first, and filtered, before being
added to the mirror.)
