For the past cpl of weeks my personal e-mailaccounts' daily been getting 150-
200% of the number of UBE I used to get on a very bad day about 3-4 months ago;
and although I'm pretty sure part of that is me pissing people off with that
speciel kind of charm that's part of my lovely personality, I still thought I'd
ask this list if you've noticed a huge increase in spam traffic in a short
period of time... Anyone?

 As I've started downloading e-mails from two hotmail-accounts (not included in
the numbers above; one of the accounts is maybe 7-8 years old, so there's a lot
of spam there) I've noticed that spammers seem to truly design their e-mails
depending on to what system they're sending them. The spam I'm getting from the
accounts at Hotmail is a lot less fancy, far from as much MIME-trickery and
almost no signs of any Bayesianbusters.
 I've never really cared about this before, but now that I'm getting as much of
the different kinds of spam that I am it's impossible to ignore these trends.

 Comparing things as they are today with how they were a year ago I'm getting
about 4 times as much spam; but I'm having way less FNs, and so far this year
I've only had two (out of 18'218 e-mails) FPs.
