You are lucky, I get 5 a day to my work email address.

Yup, I get 2 or 3 a day to voyager.

And Novera's support email has been "fortunate" enough to get on some
business spam lists so all of us watching the support email addy for
problems we might know the answer to are seeing some amazing spam ("we
can develop for you, we're in Sri Lanka", "advertize your firm to all
these other startups with no money either" and the like)

I have just started getting spam email at my home email address and
the only thing that has changed is that I registered the gmlug.org
domain name, they must be harvesting the whois databases now also.
