I was away, and therefore not listing, for 6 weeks. During that time I checked from various locations, and deleted uncounted spams. When I got home, I had accumulated, in about 1 week since the previous check, 143 spams and 5 legitimate emails.
I therefore conclude that once the spammers have your email addy, it doesn't matter whether you're listing or not! Having said that, this address is used for eBay ONLY so it does look like the spammers are harvesting addresses from eBay.
