Is anyone taking the time to read?  It's not the fact that people are getting spam - I get up to 1000 a day

It's the fact that they are coming to email addresses that are created exclusively for use with Renderosity website.  

If it was to one of my other addresses that gets them I woudn't even notice them because MailWasher gets rid but it is the fact that I, and several other people have created an email account that is ONLY used on this site for ebots, newsletters etc - it is NOT on any readme files that could be harvested, it is NOT given out ot anyone, and is NOT ued on any other site.  (would be silly to us a 'renderosity@' email at DAZ)

So, as in the other thread on this topic, the only way we can see that the address could be obtained by these spammers is hacking or selling of email addresses.

Edited to say that it is not hotmail/yahoo address - it is one I created from on of my own domain names
