Macs help The Spamhaus Project take on spam
<http://maccentral.macworld.com/news/2004/03/08/spamhaus/index.php
Linford's main servers are Power Mac G4s and Xserves, but the heart
of his network is a G4 Cube that maintains his Spamhaus Block List
(SBL), which involves feeding real-time database changes to 300
worldwide servers that help more than 200 million SBL users reject
around 8 billion spam e-mails a day. He notes that, except for
reboots required when installing or upgrading software, he hasn't
needed to restart the machine since 2001.
I knew keeping my Cube was a good idea!!!
