I run a few mailing lists which have seasonal or sporadic usage. A side effect of running these things is that the lists collect spam which ends up in my list administrator's mailbox. All very normal and boring.

But I am starting to notice a pattern which seems to suggest that when a list is quiet (such a hockey club's list during the summer months when there is nearly no traffic) - there is nearly no spam. As traffic builds up, the level of attempted spam increases.

Is it just me? Is it a coincidence? Has anyone else noticed something similar?
