I've been seeing this trend for > 8 months on my domains. Spam are 
increasingly worded to correlate on the topics the recipient has 
participated in, and MW said, security. I remember recently, one had subject 
header "Buffer Overflow" and appeared to be from the [Full-Disclosure] list

Anyone else seeing this trend? I'd be curious especially to see whether
or not they're "targeting" folks in non-IT roles. For example, do we
have any veterinarians on the list who get stock spam with subjects
related to animal husbandry?

yup, lots of odd topics, in particular they do appear to come from mailman
lists where you have subscribed, I get spam subjects and body content from
what appears to be recently discussed topics, although only "security"
security
lists. ( and yes, universaly they are penny stock dump spam )
