Mike, No problem. In fact, I just uploaded a new version of the list to the website a few minutes ago. It has now grown to 1,987 listings. Today has been a particularly bad day for spam, for some reason. Worse than most Sundays, in fact. This should add another 100 or so fresh spammers to your file. A lot of them were just added this weekend.
