Ooops, classic case of reply instead of follow-up. Sorry. Should

Not really. I do get spam there. I do report it to various spam
databases. I also use it to further re-enforce my bogofilter
database. However, the address probably isn't old enough yet to be on
a lot of mailing lists. My personal address still gets more spam than
the spam trap does. I think that's mainly to my personal address
being in the whois database.
