Hmm, looks like there may be something going on, yeah.

We've had 85,000 of those today since 4am. I checked back in our logs
and it started about 3 days ago. Ever since then, we've been
averaging about 100,000 per day.

We had a few reports of other mail servers getting unusual levels
of traffic today. I may check to see if its related...
