Much of the spam today is there to get people to go to a maliciously crafted website in hopes of exploiting a security flaw and adding the PC to a bot net. Phising is on the rise as well. Spammers make more money with those tactics as opposed to trying to sell pills.
I get maybe a couple spam messages a week in my junk folder (none in my inbox) on my Live Hotmail mail account which I have had for over 10 years.
