I'm getting a lot of spam nowadays like animated card for wikiar-l-owner, a friend has sent you a greeting card, ect.. to deal with this, create a filter and make messages skip inbox and apply a specific label to easily find good-faith messages directed to you afterwards. I have more than 3000 messages labeled now this way. I find this suitable for me and doesn't bother me much

It's a necessary evil, the only thing I can tell you is to make all e-mails like that to go to a specific folder, take a quick look, and then delete what you don't need. :(

Where is the spam getting sent? Is it being held there and you
getting
a
notification about it? Or are you just getting e-mails from people
sending
to "daily-image-l-owner"? If it's the former, you can just set in the options to auto-discard e-mails by non-subsribed users (and not hold
them
for approval). If it's the latter, get another e-mail? :-(
At least for me, it's spam that goes to owner and yes, it has increased lately. Mostly with subjects such as "download foundation-l-owner" or "experience foundation-l-owner"
