Angry S P A M

Anyone else having big problems with SPAM?

Almost the only place I use this email address is on PPRuNe, and it's getting hit with about a dozen spams every day.

Can SpamBots get into the PPRuNe personal info files? To read the email addresses?

Wherever I can I show my email address in the form of me "at" isp.com , but this won't work in some cases (like PPRuNe where the BBS needs the corrrect address)

My other 2 email addresses have virtually no SPAM, just this one. Though I use these all the time for online purchase, etc, etc.

Really annoying thing is most of the stuff comes from several USA organisations that offer "great deals" which are limited to "US Residents only" - and the address I use with PPRuNe has a .co.uk format!

Any ideas?
