I have hesitated in shifting any online registrations over there though.  Right now, I still use my old Hotmail acct as a "spam catcher".  Anything I have to give an email address for where I think I may get spam, I allow MS to take the spam.  I was a HoTMaiL user before the evil empire bought them, but the ads and crap from msn.com has gotten bad and slowed the hotmail.com to a near crawl.  It may be time to drop them completely.

I get a few (less than 5) Asian spams per day on my Gmail account.  I'm
not sure I've ever received a spam in English or any other western
language on Gmail.  Does this happen to anyone else?
