E-mail may be getting phased out by texting. Who wants to plow through 100 emails everyday where 95 are garbage? Plus everyone always has their cell phone, most people are not always on their computer.
My Spamassassin kills off my spam. I occasionally get one that makes it past, but I just mark it, and I never see that kind again.
Of course, I rarely put my email address out on the net.
Give them a couple more years. Texting will be just as flooded with spam as email is now.
