Has anyone else noticed an increase in Spam?

I set up an alias derby@<mydomain>.com <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> which is now getting a ton of stock spams from ‘bots.

The e-mail alias is only used for this list and I’m certain that its coming from an archive site.

It would be nice if the e-mail addresses were munged prior to being placed on the archive site.

Also, it would be nice to have a clear filter in the subject line to indicate where this mail is coming from.

For example, the Dovecot mailing list will include inject a [dovecot] tag in to the subject line. This makes it easier to filter the mail and put it automatically in to the correct mbox. It will also make it easier to filter against the alias. So that any mail to derby@<mydomain>.com <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> that doesn’t have a tag like [derby-user] will automatically hit /dev/null.

Can this be done?

Danke!

Spam is an essential part of internet life, why are you trying to stop it? It'd be like going to the pool for a swim and finding the pool only filled to 10%. But seriously I have also noticed an influx on spam, but I was unable to attribute it to any one list, I have the same address for all my Apache project mailing lists, and it's on that address that I get a lot of spam.
