Re: Making Email Spam Free

Hello,

This is in response to Jamie's comments regarding
his/her idea that Yahoo and Hotmail accounts are
automatically spammed. I've had this Hotmail account
as well as my Yahoo account for over two years each,
and I do not recieve ANY spam to these addresses....

I've been involved in web marketing for some time now,
and in the early days I must admit I was guilty of
spamming (my ways have changed, honest!)but in my own
experience, the only time I recieve Spam is when I've
indirectly permitted it by submitting my email address
to a form somewhere on someone's site. The worst
example was when I tried an FFA network, then I too was
recieving 200 emails a day, to my REAL account.

However for 2 years now my Hotmail and Yahoo accounts
have been spam free, so I don't believe for a minute
that having an email account with these services
automatically positions the user for any spam, never
mind 700 a day

Sincerely
