I have an email server on another PC to handle email. The attacks here have
eased up as evening approached but are still averaging about 5 per hour.

The current BBBS setup is from about 10 years ago. :-) I had considered just
going with BinkD/Tosser/Reader as I did when acting as a mail hub and RC in
past years. I am kinda disheartened with all the IP attacks. Never seemed to be
a problem in past years. At least it wasn't a problem for me.
