I agree.  I used to have several email addresses, but discovered that
you just get more spam that way (to each address).  Now my method is
like yours.  For list mail, I'll use a service that was often a source
of spam, such as yahoo, so they can deal with any spam that public list
mail attracts (I think this is karma, as well as practical).  And my
personal mail is handled by a completely separate service.

Boilerplate:  All unexpected mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted.
I will only get to see the messages that are posted to the mailing list.
