Perhaps this list might be a way to set up test account exchanges??

Don't they do the same thing Juno mail does and pay for the service by selling the address to 'Advertising Partners'? My 17 year old sister in law get no adult spam to her hotmail address at all, and 99% of mine is, that says target marketing to me. I only have the address as a remote test account, to validate mail routing to my domain hosting customers, and rarely even then. If it were not a free mail account then I would say it would be a lot of work to get it listed, but I know there are only two ways to pay for a service, you pay or the advertisers pay.

He means "A few days ago I created an account on Hotmail that had once existed, but since I just created it, it's a new E-mail account." Unless he was extremely active in trying to receive spam, I can't think of any other way that it could have happened. Or, he may have used his "poetic license" to count the number of spams he received. -Scott --- [This E-mail was scanned for viruses by Declude Virus (http://www.declude.com)] --- This E-mail came from the Declude.JunkMail mailing list.
