Spam volumes jump 'with a vengeance'

Spammers came out in force last month generating a deluge of unsolicited email that "severely threatened corporate networks", a monitoring report claimed today.

According to Postini's analysis of almost 70 billion emails from September to November, there was a 59 percent spike in spam over the period.

The firm reported that unwanted email currently represents 91 percent of all email, and that the daily volume of spam has risen by 120 percent over the past 12 months.
