My experience of the last 3 years shows that the spam I get is very low. Spam escaping Google's spam filter is around 3-4 per week. Spam in Google's spam folder is between 15-25 per day, but that does not bother me anyway. Also I would not change mail addresses just because of spam. For excessive spam I'd rather use other means like a good spam filter and/or a tar pit or whatever. I'm not used to let spammers rule my mail system. -- wobo
