I am now seeing over 40 spam messages per day hit my dMw email.
I only have the email registered at Ladder and CS related sites. Are any of you guys getting this much spam?
I have noticed OBs email also on the same list on some of the spam emails.
:unsure:
Yep.
In fact TL and I get any emails sent to orphaned deadmen addresses so you can imagine the quantity. <_<

I don't really mind a dozen a day or so but when I checked yesterday morning and cleared it out, and today there are 71 ! it begins to take ages.
Do you think even changing from albert to dmw_albert might help or not?
Such a change would be bound to help, but only temporarily. Best solution is to use some anti-spam solution. We can also look into the anti-spam side of imail or other packages. We'll have a look round. Personally I wouldn't bother with the change of email - everyone will write to albert@deadmen.co.uk, not dmw_albert. Anyway, that would ruin all the pr0n mail I signed you up for ;)
It is kinda difficult for me to assess exactly how much spam is coming in to the deadmen domain as I use Cloudmark's Spamnet - this removes something in the order of 100-150 spam messages per day from my Inbox for the various email addresses I have - this is before I even get to see them :D I have no idea how many of them are for my deadmen addie, but I suspect very few. You may just be the lucky one :(
TL.
