We saw a drop a couple weeks ago in the messages rejected by spamhaus
and just this last weekend saw it go back up to previous levels.

Our e-mail administrator reported having to disable our Spamhaus RBL
the week before last last due to a sudden increase in rejection of
messages, some from major ISPs like Comcast.

Anyone seen anything similar?
