5 *seconds* a day?

I'm the webmaster for a lot of sites and thus I cannot help revealing 
my email address (though I'm working on obscuring it) and I get about 
200 pieces of Spam a day.

I make heavy use of filters and now I have a Bayesian spam removing 
system but I still spend some 30 minutes a week going through the 
Spam to make sure I don't miss anything important (and there is 
usually at least one piece of important email that gets filed with 
Spam).

I also run several mailing lists, *each* of which has software that 
obscures emails pretty thoroughly...  hint, hint, hint, hint.


A shame that LD is one of my serious spam sources -- and that it's 
too late now to unsub and resub with an unimportant address as my 
main address is up there for eternity.
