My Gmail account is only given to living, breathing human beings I have personally met.  No Spam.

My Hotmail account is is freely given out like the clap in Bangkok.  Muy grande Spam.

Most of my E-mail accounts are held very close to the cuff. The one that gets hammered the most is the one I don't give out much.

Let me guess you have comcast?

When I first signed up for yahoo, the first 4 messages i got were spam in my spam folder.  I would think yahoo wouldn't want that and could block that quite easily.

With a few setting changes its taken care of and now I have no problems.

My old college account is now littered with spam, usually about 25-50 a day

My favourite is:

"Are you an amateur lover?"

I mean, I don't do it for a living but I'd consider myself a bit better than amateur.... Semi-pro maybe....

You just need the right service provider combined with not putting your email address on the net.

that's great and all, but i think the ISP's should be filtering this crap, not me, i never signed up for any of it. A software solution is suspect at best to me, resource hogs, and who created the need?
