Today, I have received around 80 pieces of junk mail. My junk mail filter
catches most of it very well but I still have to check it, of course.
Most
days, the number is something between 30 and 50. Is this because
Gardenbanter is reproducing posts from urg or is there some other
explanation? I'd be grateful to know of the experiences and opinions of
others on urg.

No I do not think it's really anything to specifically do with GB.
Harvesting tools have become more efficient at stripping out the anti spam
bits from email addresses.
It's much more likely that a legitimate user of your email addy has passed
it on to someone else who has passed it on etc etc. I can assure you that
even the most (reputable ?)Companies do sell and cross swap lists. Banks,
Building Societies, Solicitors and your ISP.

I get much more spam than you. Usually people are offering me P enlargement.
I wouldn't mind too much but these emails are usually followed by offers of
Viagra which I assume is needed to make the new thingy function. :-)
