O.P. Crazy spam
Okey, science I got Gmail I have had barely no spam at all but when I checked my mail this morning...

43 new mails in inbox, all spam :| Now, I'm getting spam mails every minute. Even now I just got one. Is there a way to track them or something?

RE: Crazy spam
Hmm

When/If you were deleteing your spam folder, did you accidently press unmark as spam or w/e?

I did that and I had emails coming out the ying-yang.... Had to go through like 4-5 pages of mail to report them all back as spam...

They might be able to help.

Check out this....

Seems like your not the only one?

Maybe there has been a spam attack on gmail addresses or something

I've never gotten a single spam in my GMail.

The golden rule is, don't let strangers know what your email address is ;)
Hint: your signature.

You don't tell your home address and phone number to a total stranger, do you?
