I was a victim of this a few months ago. It's not addresses that were harvested, the individuals accounts were hacked, and he mail is coming from the actual accounts, it's hard to filter these.

Obviously someone - or several someones - have hijacked a lot of regular posters' addresses. It's not just here, of course; I keep getting "messages" to my email, ostensibly from old classmates, that are merely links to some commercial or porn site. I guess it's too much to expect the SPAM filters to keep up with SPAMmers' ingenuity - and it would probably be dangerous, like feeding massive doses of antibiotics to cows - but this is just insufferable.
