I also have gmail, and some folks get that address. On top of it, I use a mail forwarding service- www.pobox.com and get a [email protected] address. I've had this for about 10 years or so, and move the pointer to different underlying accounts. This is about $15/year (and was $60 for 5 years). In addition to the forwarding, I can have up to 3 or 5 addresses and they do some nifty spam filtering. Very happy with this.

Cheers.
