Nope.
An increase in spam is most likely down to new spammers having got your
email address.
I have never had much spam. Then my ISP installed server-wide anti-spam
measures. Now I spend a lot of time hunting down the legitimate messages
which get blocked. I get kicked from evolt every month or so due to
excessive bounces. So I am a bit miffed about it but overall the mail
servers are a lot better than they were.
I've heard Spambayes is very successful at eliminating spam, but can be
processor intensive.
