Personally, I want to have some address that I can reach the author at, and if that means that spammers can pick it up too (open source means that everybody has the same stuff _I_ have) I guess people who want to talk to me need to live with spam filters or send patches to me from special accounts.

It's not that bad. Since I started posting to lkml, my daily spam dosis has risen from one to three, roughly. Annoying, but not a big problem, even without filters.

All the spam comes because of the archives of this mailing list stored as HTML in thousands of places. The web-spider programs used by the spammers are sure to find atleast one.
My inbox is full of stuff like "Strictly Confidental" and "your solution to never ending spam"
