The guy I work with who looks after the email said that spam volumes 
have ramped up recently.  We have had to upgrade the mailserver software 
(and consequently the hardware) to cope with the new demands.
One thing he mentioned was creating a "honey trap" account.  This could 
be an ex employee that no longer receives legitimate email or just a new 
one created for the purpose.  The idea being that you get this address 
on sites that you know will be harvested so they get hammered with spam 
and you know that everything going to that address IS spam and can go to 
your spam filters.  Anyone used this approach?
