This is a surprise?

One of, if not the biggest spam mails I've ever used. Not to mention just plain crappy speed too, compared to other web mails. Have 3 Gmail accounts. 2 of them, I've NEVER given the address out to anyone and get 30 spams a day. The one account I do use, get about 15-20 also.

They're talking about spam being sent from Google's servers.

Please read the article.

Same thing here. I opened a gmail account for testing purposes only. Two weeks ago I logged into the gmail account and WHAM 20+ spam messages. How did the spammers get my email address? Who knows maybe an inside job.

I never gave my email address to anybody and I only sent one or two emails to my internal servers.

It's not an inside job. Spammers send their crap to every possible combination of email addresses. They just got lucky and found yours. And they keep track of what doesn't bounce.
