I receive a massive amount of spam at this address compared to my
others (same domain) which only started when the LUG switched to an
open archive. I understand that email addresses are altered so I'm
really not sure why this is.

I've recently upgraded my server to ClarkConnect 4.1 and they've added
a second layer of spam filtering plus OCR, with a little training I'm
hoping that I'll be able to cut the number of spam emails getting
through down significantly.
