Same here; I translate a lot of FOSS-software, my dedicated 
email-address figures in plaintext in the headers of tons of publicly 
available PO-files, 18.218 occurrencies at last count, but I get only a 
couple of spam messages per week. And as a moderator for a few 
Mailman-lists I get to discard at most a couple of spams per day. Sure, 
spam-filters have already done with some 99% of the spam we never see, 
but I don't really see this as a problem anymore.

Guess social engineering on Facebook et al. is much more effective...
