I've been getting them regularly too, mostly all from the same spammer, at
least from the looks of the headers. I've also had one spammer sending me
ads quite often, but the admin over his service does not seem to be
willing to take action. I didn't get any spam at all until I started
posting to classiccmp, and I suspect my address got harvested early on.
The volume of spam hasn't increased too much, but even 2-3/day tends to be
annoying.
