I think you could say that about most of them.
I get 10 to 15 emails a week about jobs, usually permanent (I've told them all I don't want permanent, and I'm in a contract so don't want anything at all right now) - and often, other than the word 'computer' it has nothing to do with anything on my cv.
I'm primarily a java/web developer, and have been now for 8 years - but because I have reasonable experience in Oracle (was an oracle developer for 3 years, and have used it in most backends over the years), and sql server, I get no end of crap emails about DBA jobs, T-Sql developers - often for junior positions that are paying less than I was on 10 years ago
I did some work with Tibco products & Stellent products, and they are literally mentioned in one sentence in the cv, but I get constant emails about it - it drive me up the wall.
