SPAM drop?

Greetings!

Not that I want to complain - but I have observed a massive drop in
(unsuccessful because blocked) SPAM deliveries - only ~10% compared to only
2 weeks ago (or only 20% of the average of this year).

Has anyone else observed this?
What might be the reason?
Could that effect be amplified even more?

Thanks

Volker Tanger


PS: the massive drop early january was due to a mail server failure,
    thus does not count...

I was going to say that you can have some of mine if you are missing it.

Actually,  I am seeing more spam directly evade the existing filters
and getting delivered to the end user.
Especially things that should be caught such as Spams with the word
penis (I work for a Telecom's firm), although my users have figured
out how to complain to others that  I am a Dick without it being
filtered.
