Actually, I don't get any spam at all currently (for my bbs account).
Obviously I'm a freak of nature.  I'll try harder. ;)  Now on my Comcast email 
and work email (even though they say they filter it) Ham to Spam ratio is like 
1:30.  I also get bounced occasionally for even using comcast to relay the bbs 
mail. (comcast=dynamic ips, spam haven) :)
