My rejection rate is between 20k-30k per day...and I'm just a little 
guy. Most of that by my netblock blocking (see previous post), tho. I 
don't have any reason to accept any email from Korea or the Ukraine or 
Iran, so I just don't.  I use simscan to manage spam and virus checking.

Yeah.  That would be a problem if you have a lot of users who actually 
"talk" to majordomo.  I made my switch when setting up MJ for customers 
at their domains, so it was transparent to them.

I agree with Julian.  Look for another list server to install.  Besides 
mailman, there's ezmlm, and listserv (not free?).  There's a Yahoo group 
I work with that doesn't work very well 'cause we don't have good 
control.  Would still have to retrain the users, tho.
