My email address is in plain text all over the place. I rarely see spam though. Almost all of my mail is redirected to Gmail and their spam filters are great. Do community based spam filters exist? Sort of like how AdBlock has feeds for ad rules.

Although, I understand that spamming is annoying to people that manage infrastructure.
