I'll be keeping an eye on it and let you know. The Spammers have 
gotten rabbid in the past year and a half, grabbing e-mail addresses 
where ever they can.

The worst type is domain-spam bombing. Where every exsisting first 
name @ youdomain get spammed like:

aaron@yourdomain
abraham@yourdoman
etc...

and then ever common last name:
anderson@yourdomain
jones@yourdomain
willson@yourdomain
etc ...

and then ever letter (a to z) followed by a common last name @youdomain, like:
ajones@yourdomain
bjones@yourdomain
cjones@yourdomain
etc ...

Now, if you have all e-mail sent to your domain sent to one e-mail 
box, you have a problem. This recently happened to me, well over 
10,000 e-mails. Imagine trying to pull that over your cell-modem 
using your 2400 (there, back on topic)
