Quick way to get (current) spam
Hi. I'm looking for a quick way to get spam. I need to test several e-mail filters, and I need the most current spam. What I mean by current is it should not be old spam (like nigeria bank accounts and such, although they still do come once in a while). If you know of sites that do spam subscriptions, let me know. Thanks.

Yes, I did those. I went to several "newsletter" type submissions and I'm getting these emails. However, it's somehow slow and I don't have time to fill-in forms and subscribe to those lists. I remember I submitted a site for a directory listing and I got about 400+ spam mails. But that was a long time ago and I do not have the link anymore.
I'm basically complicated regex matching script in PHP, and for performance speed tests I need a lot of mails.
