spamgourmet offers unlimited free disposable email addresses that you can have forward to any real address. You don't have to create them on the website, just give one to somebody and it gets created the first time *they* use it. I never trusted Yahoo, anyway...
the Brightmail statistic that spam has doubled since September begs the question of what was happening then. spamgourmet gave admittedly far from scientific stats showing a marked *drop* in September, probably due to the attacks of the 11th. I wonder if Brightmail could say that spam has doubled since last August...
spamgourmet is a good (open source) inline disposable email address filter that does *not* require you to set up each address specifically on the site -- instead, you simply remember the syntactic rule for disposables and make them up when you need them. You can then track how spammers got your address, or simply let the disposables get used up and not worry abou it.
The idea is to set you free to surf/sign up at will and make it easier to not get spam than it is to get spam.
