OK, maybe I was not strictly correct. 

A quick look at my uncleared spam folder: 1509 messages, 1397 unique 
addresses. The 112 duplicates represent 29 different names

Of that 29, 17 are multiples in the same spam run.They have more than 
one address for me in their database.
(lexacorp at global.net.pg, pomh3 at lexacorp.com.pg, hash at lexacorp.com.pg 
etc)

I have received spam on different dates from the other 12 names. So 
12 / 1397 recent names/address that I have received spam from were 
used more than once.

Make that:
"99% of spammers do not use the same name/address twice."
