Spontaneous reboots

Thank you for your replies.
I got a hint off-list that this could be ipfilter:
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=kern/79988
Looking at my first kernel trap error, I see I also had the (swi1: net)
and on -CURRENT, I can't compile kernel with IPFILTER enabled, nor does
it compile as a module.
Shifting to packet filter seems to have solved the problem, system up >
24h and I have my mail again :-)
Regarding the illicit mail deliveries I mentioned, this persists, so I
am exited to see that(if?) my system sustains it (I have just set the MX
record back). It's a trivial mail-bombing of non-existing random
addresses on my server.
I have a perl script well underway for analysing the maillog, counting
number of rejections and looking up abuse adresses with whois - all
nicely stored in an xml file for later use (no - I refuse to implement
automatic mail notification to the abuse addresses). If anyone is
interested, let me know.
Cheers, Erik
