I've had an E-mail account since 1983, which means I've beem getting spam since about 1988 or so. I've always used filters/spam blockers, hidden my E-mail on my Web site and the like, but I also post to USENET sometimes. Periodically, the level of spam disgusts me so I just change my E-mail address. Based on the huge amount of spam I'm currently getting, I think I'll be doing that again soon.
Now a member of Project HoneyPot.org - a Website that helps track down spammers, harvesters and the like.
2/7/2010: There's been a huge decline in spam this week - only four pieces in three days (but 190+ pieces in the four days before that). Maybe Spam Assassin is working again!
If you have automatic ways to track spammers, please copy any info from here you'd like.
