Spam increase

Has anyone else been experiencing a great increase of spam over the last few days?
Almost 1000 so far today when I usually get less than 30 or so.
So many are Facebook related and many others share the same subject, recipient or sender so I am wondering why these are not picked up by Postini.
I know that these come and go in spates but, nevertheless, I still thought many would have been caught before they got to my inbox.

Re: Spam increase

Yes, I have had a considerable increase in Spam...something like 50 every day at first but now slowed down to about 20 but still coming thck and fast.
I am also on webmail.
For information, I also have a eMail address with another russian server and the spam there has also been more than usual.
But the russian server soon takes notice of my "this is spam" report and I never see the same sender again... not like Plusnet which seems to take no notice of my report of spam and continues to send me the same spam from the reported senders.
