Me too.
At least in Brazil, fighting SPAM is dangerous. The local Anti-Spam
organizations was prosecuted by lost of profits by spammers, and man,
money really talks here.
I don't know how (and if) this ends, but a Prosecution here is extremely
expensive. Common people don't have how to fight agains this.

This week things become worse. Last week I was receiving 2 or 3 spams a
day. Today, I had 20.

Nope. Is the end of the istery. Everybody is comming back to business.

I had quit filtering spams. I don't do it anymore. Nowadays, I filter
the messages I know I want to receive.
I made a filter that looks for all emails I know, and all mailing lists
I in, and move them to a special folder. I always look firts in that
special folder and, sometaimes, I peek the garbage searching for
something that could be of use.

Me too. But worst at all, these people DENY ME the right to read what I
want, as some of them fools me to read a email I don't want (faking a
mailing list reader, of pretending be someone I knows).
