Jim,

I've been getting hundreds of them per day for a couple of weeks now.

They're not using my mail server, just my address.

I suggested (on twitter, only half jokingly) that we set up our
own network of anti-spam machines that DoS the spam-sending
slave/drone networks.

Sounds like a fun idea, until the cops get involved and we're
the only ones that get caught. ;-)
