ITS THAT EASY
you don't get enough of it yet, obviously. some of us get more than enough. like they said above, big deal, one spammer sends you a piece of spam. however, for every asshole out there like this guy who will publically ask about spam, there's hundreds more who keep quiet about it. and when each one of those fuckers is sending me one message per day, that's hundreds of messages per day.

eventually it will be so bad that if i go away on vacation, my mail program will crash or server will get full (not very likely, but due to the growing pattern, i'm sure it will happen someday...) while i'm gone. just an easy "delete and move on" situation then? no. that borders almost on a denial of service attack.
