John,
Thank You, Thank You, Thank You!
For some reason, my user count jumped up to 6. After I fixed that problem, it did not "automagically" start filtering again. You post with the 'That is specifically "filter management-> score configuration -> Enable Filtering had turned itself off' is the clue I needed to turn filtering back on. Now the past 6 days of all the junk getting through will go back to normal.
Thanks for your help,
Tom
