Personally, the only change I've seen in the last few days is that I'm
getting 419s instead of the manhood increasement and online med spams. 
Most of them aren't getting by my filters; I'm talking about what I've
been seeing shunted to my spam folder for re****ting.  Total, after the
server side filters have done their job, they've probably amounted to
probably five a day for all (not each) of my various mailboxes.
