I do. Once I've accepted the email it's delivered; into the user's spam
folder if it looks spammy, into their Windwoes folder if it might have
executable content.
Today I had the pleasure of filtering through 200+ emails, mostly
offering male enhancements or medications, one or two "You've won ..."
and a "check your bank details at this location...."
One thing has me foxed about those male medications and such - I only
get them at work (a .edu.au address). This email address gets none, the
domain only gets email from a few sites, but I have some other
long-standing email addresses that get none of that, but more financial
spam.
