My biggest concern is the spam. I had 266 new spam messages after being gone over a 3 day period. I have my filter set as this:

If
Any
contains
X-Spam-Level: **
Delete it
No

Is there anything new I need to do with that?

Nope - that looks right. Open one of your spam messages (try this with a few) and from the screen where you read the message, click on the "View Header" button. Fin the X-Spam-Level line in the header. You should never see one with more than one star.

Problem with spammers is that they've also started to figure out programs like SpamAssassin, so the spam messages are now simpler and they often write them to NOT include any of the tell-tale span footprints. The battle will continue for a while!

You can drop your X-Spam-Level in your filter to one * only if you want... should get a few more, but there's still going to be spam that gets though. Sounds like your email address is on a lot of spam lists.

Some users on this site who has never published their dropzone.com email addresses online gets no spam at all.
