spammers

[Marvin GodfatherofSoul Bellamy]

I use my Yahoo account just for registration because it is such a spam 
magnet.  I bet I get at least 500 spams/month at that account.  They 
used to sweep your accounts regularly if your bulk (read "spam") folder 
got over a certain size, but now I guess they want to track your account 
usage by forcing you to do this manually.  Setting up an E-mail server 
is high on my list of home network tasks...
