10,000 + spam messages
Is anyone else getting spammed furiously at the moment? Most of my spam goes straight into my Gmail spam folder -- Gmail has a pretty good filter. But because of the odd bit of bleed-through into my Inbox, one can spot trends and I noticed this morning that I had received over 10,000 (ten thousand) spam messages since last night. That is a seriously large amount, isn't it? Good thing I didn't have to delete them all manually.

I have a gmail account and i am not getting hit like that. Is your gmail address posted anywhere online? on the duke website, or NTGateway? That may explain it.
there was a bit of a jump last night ... I usually get about 30 overnight and this a.m. it was close to 200. my forum is getting spammed big time right now too ...
Thanks for the comments. Danny: everything forwards to the Gmail address -- Duke, NTGateway.com etc., but it's the latter that generates most of the spam.
