You were saying that yahoo groups causes spam.. The only mail I ever get from yahoo Groups (as I have it set to check at site, not email messages to me) are ones I require as a moderator.. new members etc.
Once a month or so in my yahoo account I get a mail from Yahoo telling me about new services etc.
Thats it.. thats all I get in there (other than personal emails regarding Voluntary work I do connected to a yahoo group).. and I checked, and my account is now 3 years old.. so, you say I have to give it time, yet 3 years is quite a while in my book.
The only other place I have used that email is here.. its rarely posted here, but I must have done it as I get an occasional mail from posters that have found my address!!!
From discussing with friends, if you never sign up to a website, or ever give your address out on a public board, you really won't get much, if any, spam. Though if you do open spam mails this will increase the amount you get alot of the time!
So, I was just pointing out that your comment that "everyone gets spam" is false!
