Known taktik. And it even looks like that they have some intelligence. I
get spam mails with To: randomrandom at a_domain_i_own.ch to my old gmx
mail address. The intersting thing is, i never used the gmx adress and
this domain in combination. How they got this link is unclear.

But about the real problem: Yes it's known, if you write a mail on one
of the mplayer lists, you will get imediatly a lot of spam. The lists
are just mirrored on to many websites. I strongly suggest to use
spamassassin or something similar to filter spam.
