33TB PER DAY is... NOTHING!
Last February AOL alone reported catching 780,000,000 spam messages PER DAY!
With an average size of 10 KB per message that's 7,800,000,000,000 Bytes per day.
Guess how much that is:
7.8TB
That's just the spam that AOL has blocked!
Never mind those that it didn't catch!
Forget Yahoo,Hotmail,MSN...
How about the tens of thousands of ISPs and mailservers all around the world?
I can't even BEGIN to imagine the total traffic that spam currently accounts for!
