I get them all of the time. I think that this list and others are
farmed for email addresses.

For the idiots who use an actually an email address as a reply venue, I
oftentimes reply and attach a few files so they can expand their
software collection. (About 14 Mb worth) That usually clogs their
mailbox and shuts them down for a while.

I have also noticed some of my newer email addresses, that I setup to
avoid spam, are now also getting an increased volume of spam. Something
is going to have to be done in the next few years to eliminate spam,
otherwise the internet will just become one big spam pipe.
