Thanks for the replies.

Up until a few months ago I had never received a single spam mail on my
cell phone, for the four years I've had it with the same email address.


My email address is something that at least *was* spam proof (it's easy
to remember but consists of numbers, hyphens and variations of a few
words).  I'm pretty sure my address got obtained somehow, as opposed to
generated by some algorithm.

Oh well, if necessary I'll just have to try changing my address.
