Thanks for the comments, Paul.

Maybe it is paranoia, but I KNOW:
1) I used to get almost no SPAM;
2) I have not changed my net "habits" in any way for a long time;
3) I have never tried to de-list myself from any SPAM that came to me;
4) Now this thing gives me a list of 10 or more SPAM every 8-12 days;
5) Now I get more SPAM directly than I ever got before (now 1 or more a day!!!)

Something simply looks/feels wrong with this picture. Do you know of some way I could try to investigate this further?

Thanks

I've added a bunch of "blocked" addresses, which has also helped. I could usually count on the amount of spam I got after posting a message on Usenet to jump immediately afterwards (even with a "scrambled" e-mail/reply-to address). After Postini, it doesn't.
