I have this alexion.com account that I have been using since 1994. From 1994-2003, the address was part of a number of unobscured mailto links on a number of web sites. The address gets 200-300 mails a day with less than a dozen not spam. I had forwarded the address to a yahoo account for the purpose of taking advantage of their spam filters. yahoo caught about 80%, but had problems with false positives. So far, gmail seems to be catching about 98% and no false positives. Using IMAP to check the account from work, home and my Treo is the proverbial icing on the cake. Attachment:
