I'm quite surprised. If I'm not mistaking, spamassassin is looking at
every mail transiting at @gnu.org addresses since almost a month and I
havent noticed more than 4 spams in the whole month on the differents
@gnu.org mailing-list in that delay.

So I cannot share the idea that it's going "out-of-control".

You should give details about this spam to system-hackers that deals
with spam filtering matters. You was maybe victim of a targetted
flood. Is the origin of the spamming different for each mail?
