Someone recently noticed that address lists appear to have been harvested

still have lists from prior to this enhancement.

sorry to say, but those emails already harvested will never stop getting
spam now.  Your only option is to abandon that address, and start a new
(Safe) one.

Or, just install really good spam filters, like spamassassin. :)
