Yes, it does pay to be careful. In my case, I can usually spot the odd spam
message that makes it through the Junk Mail Filter. IMHO, all spam messages
should be treated carefully, similar to nuclear waste. I usually don't open
them (or preview them), but use View/Source to confirm they are lacking in
redeeming value before consigning them to the Deleted Items folder for
proper clean-up.

In the particular case that the OP was citing, he was trying to enjoy the
iMac Update email newsletter from Apple in all its intended glory. I
personally don't see any problem with extending Apple a bit of trust in this
area (especially since they already know my e-mail and physical address).
