The Impact of SPAM on your institution

[Tim Lane <tlane () SCU EDU AU>]

Hi All,

I am interested in understanding the impact of SPAM on other institutions
(ours is growing to be a major problem despite some technical controls in
place).  Specifically, if anyone was able to answer the following questions
that would be very apprecaited:  (if anyone want a summary please email me):

1) Is SPAM a non problem, minor problem or major problem in your
institution? (perhaps incidcate % of spam received of total email)

2) Is or has your institution actively addressing SPAM in a way that has or
will substantialy reduce the impact of SPAM?

3) What type of controls (both technical and human) are being used?

Thanks I would really appreciate any feedback on this.
