If you're willing to tolerate a small delay in mail delivery, and also
either a cap on the number of messages you receive a day, or having to pay
for the service, then consider forwarding through a bigfoot.com address. The
only spam I get this way is from bigfoot themselves, once every few months.
But then, I have hardly any friends, so the rate cap doesn't bother me :)
