About 2-3 months ago I started getting a steady slow stream of spam on
my exclusive piclist account.  Not enough to worry about since Mozilla
takes care of most of it.  If it starts getting as bad as my main
account (about ~150 spam/day, mozilla filters all but 10-20 without
intervention) then I'll toss this account and re-sign up under a new one.

Disposable accounts are a good thing.
