SPAM statistics reset?

[itcinc]

I have a client box that is receiving *a lot* of spam. Most of it is destined for an email account that no longer existing. This box drops between 75,000 to 95,000 messages per day. I have previously posted a screen shop with 2.4 MILLION messages blocked in this thread
http://forums.untangle.com/spam-bloc...while-hot.html

However, the other day I logged in and the box had been up for 30 or 40 days (I forgot to make note) but the spam counter was *much* lower than it should have been - less than it had been previously. Is there an upper limit of the spam counter where it "rolls over" and starts at 0 again?

I don't think it rolls over, but the stats are reset anytime the untangle-vm reboots. (like an upgrade or reboot)

Would this type of event cause the uptime statistics shown when you mouse over CPU load to reset?

Reboot I understand. But the stats said the box had been up for - say 45 days - so the count should have been a conservative 3.3 MILLION.

No, UVM reset doesn't affect the uptime timer. Uptime is how long the linux kernel has been loaded and running.
