[Dxspider-support] Here we are again (huge flooding)

Keith (and others)

Have you *set/var $DXProt::senderverify 2*  ?

Because that will stop most this sort of thing at the nearest edge to 
the source. Please do this for at least the duration of this contest.

This is safe to do on any mojo instance - regardless of when it was last 
updated. If that was before March 2023, then it will have no effect and 
won't do any harm. It will make your debug files a bit bigger for this 
contest (if you have many connected nodes) but that will change on the 
next release.
