I don't agree with the previous comment at all, I'm happy to have more TLDs, but a report from 2009, before creating new ones really opened up, isn't useful.

  It would also be useful to know how many domains in the TLD or what the distribution of requests is over all TLDs. Yes, .com should have a large percentage because there are so many domains registered in that TLD, but if 20% of the .amazon domains are spam/malware/phishing then a savvy admin will block by default and just whitelist the small number of exceptions.

    A savvy admin should outsource spam management and not spend time on crude techniques that inevitably cause false positives.

      Savvy admins do both, because outsourced filtering isn't 100% and can always be tuned better for your businesses actual needs.

      I am less concerned about spam management than I am of phishing sites and the like. Email from bogus tlds is of little concern because it will hit the spam bucket just like everything else, but if you do a DNS lookup on one of these joke tlds you can expect a high probability of having the request filtered.
