One of, if not the biggest spam mails I've ever used. Not to mention just plain crappy speed too, compared to other web mails. Have 3 Gmail accounts. 2 of them, I've NEVER given the address out to anyone and get 30 spams a day. The one account I do use, get about 15-20 also. -- The Firefox alternative. »www.mozilla.org/projects/seamonkey/ |

I opened a gmail account for testing purposes only. Two weeks ago I logged into the gmail account and WHAM 20+ spam messages. How did the spammers get my email address? Who knows maybe an inside job.
I never gave my email address to anybody and I only sent one or two emails to my internal servers. |
