    [Moderator: Obviously this is a concern to anyone running a large
 mail system. What kind of "spam" could drop servers like that?]

           WELL-DONE SPAM COOKED PAC BELL'S EMAIL
           Several large, coinciding spams, originating from AT&T
           WorldNet and CompuServe, were blamed for last month's
           unprecedented interruption in Pacific Bell Internet's mail
           service, the ISP says. Typical spam, untypical impact,
           observers say.
