No, really. One hour was kind of a disappointment. I've almost always
reported the spam in the same minute that I've received it (unless I wasn't
there, which is very rare, as I work out of the house). I have the computer
set up to wake me up with a loud noise if I receive spam, so I can report
it immediately, even if it's 3:00 am. Of course, I generally go to sleep
around 2:00 am, and get up around 6:00 am, so that small window of time,
coupled with the fact that I only get a spam every couple of days on
average, means that I seldom have to wake up to report spam.

There was a time, though, at the beginning of this year (when I first
started actively fighting spam) that I was getting several thousand spam
per month. I went for a long time without long periods of sleep... but it's
been worth it, I get almost no spam now.
