I have noticed a significant increase in the amount of spam I've been
receiving.  I have alsoo noticed a significant increase in the amount
of spam I've been sending.

On the other hand, how much of it is from Australia?  I've identified
about four messages.  In each case, I've forwarded the message to the
relevant abuse department asking for a response by a certain date.  In
each case, I have had no response.  I've been meaning to forward the
messages and my response to the ACA or whoever does this stuff, but I
haven't yet found out how to do that.
