At least it keeps the crud out of your mailbox - only people who are
allowed in actually get in there. OK, new correspondents get mixed up
with the rubbish in the secondary box but with the use of greylisting,
spam assassin and a few of your own rules (like lists(_at_)clifford(_dot_)ac
has to
come from a subscribed list), the amount of rubbish in the secondary box
can be cut down considerably.
