Spam dropping for you?

[mu_hilltopper]

I was wondering if anyone else is noticing the count of spam they receive dropping?

My primary email is a yahoo address .. had it for nearly 10 years .. Yahoo's anti-spam system is pretty good .. in the past, it'd dump 40-60 spams/day into the spam folder.

But now?  Over the past 6-8 weeks, I'm down to 5 spam per day.  It's unreal.   Maybe after 1,000,000 spams sent to one address, they realize you aren't a sucker and quit sending it to you?

I know they "shut down" a spam operation in the last month  .. http://www.darkreading.com/document.asp?doc_id=165919&WT.svl=news1_1

But then you read this .. which says "Spam Flood goes on despite bust" .. that global spam levels haven't dropped.
