They use programs that search discussion boards for email addresses. You will see a lot of people modify their address to something like mikesNO*SPAMw200@yahoo.com. Others on the board have to remember to take the NO*SPAM out to make the address work. I simply use a Hotmail or Yahoo "throw away" account. Once I start receiving too much garbage, I ditch it for a new one. My last Hotmail account I was receiving 40-50/day.
It really is a shame that there is no good recourse to get even with these morons.
