I've been using a Yahoo! email account for quite some time now. One good thing I like about it is that it separates (or at least it tries to) the spam emails from the ones you really want to receive and places it on the Bulk folder. Occasionally, a spam email could sneak in and that not really bad.
As much as I hate receiving them, I've decided to collect spam emails to find out how long it will take to get 1,000 spams. So far, I've collected 221 and I started on Oct. 7. I don't think it'll reach a thousand by the end of this year. Who knows, maybe the upcoming holidays will boost the numbers.
I hope there's a company that will pay you money for every spam you collect, just like collecting those pesky soda can tabs for cash. Will keep you posted on this non-sense project.

You never know. I have mine filled up to 6000+ before. I think that's the max. I never seen my bulk messages count more that 7000. Three weeks ago, I just wiped out all my bulk messages (I do this often now). And now, I have 2292 bulk messages so far... that's only 3 weeks.
Maybe because I signed up a lot to those unwanted websites (hehehehehe). I don't remember :).
Anyways, that's good that you thought of blogging that down. That's really a good idea.
Later.
