The joy of having your own domain is that you can just cycle the email
addresses as needed.

The amount of spam is actually way down from where it has been. The filters
of the major providers seem to be doing a good job.

I read recently that Bill Gates gets 3M emails daily (mostly spam) on his
public email account and that the spam filters wipe out 99.9% of those.

Thanks,

Max,

Interestingly, the email address I use for the SAS-L is the least spam-
inundated of my email addresses.  FWIW, the address that gets the most
spam is the one I used (about a year ago) to register my copy of real
player.
