Great if you want to spend £5 month, and give a stranger access to your mailbox. As I have said many times in all the Spam topics we get, there are plenty of free spam filters out there - the one I use is Popfile, and it's sucess rate is currently 99%.

FYI: Once you start getting Spam, it will normally continue as Spammers generally asume that any e-mail address they don't get a delivery failure for is a valid address.
