Howdy,
The other thing you might want to consider is a service like Yahoo's
junk addresses.  You can create as many junk addresses as you want, e.g.
[EMAIL PROTECTED], subscribe those addresses to the lists, and
if you get spam you-
A. Know for sure where it came from
B. Can easily remove the dummy address
C. Know that your main/real address is not affected.

That's why my work address is seperate from my normal address.  I haven't
(apart from the Autoresponder ones) got any spam yet.

Unfortunately it is a little late for my home address.  I've been using the
same address since 1997, but only really started using it online when I
finished Uni (3 years ago).

My personal solution to spam is not better spamfilters but more spam.  So
much so that fake spam (advertising products with no links) outnumber the
real spam ergo diluting their click through rate and therefore reducing
profits.  Also the side effect of a dramatic increase in spam will cause
national governments to hastily make laws banning it and then follow up with
cease-and-desist.  Fakespammers would have got what they wanted and the real
spammers will have to sign on.
