Based on the number of emails I get because other people think my email address is their email address...
As one of the first subscribers to a new ISP, that was set to be the most popular one in my country, I was able to get an email address with my nick. I couldn't anticipate what was coming my way. It was possible to explain most people their mistakes, not the guy sending me underskirt porn. Except it was scottish underskirt porn. It was too embarrassing to write a complaint.
Now with my current gmail address I had a problem with a bunch of... individuals that use a reply-to-all mail list. Forced to mask everything as spam.
