This is about E-Mail spam. I've had this gmail account for a few months now, i don't check it or anything i just needed it to start the website. But i looked at it today and i have like 30 e-mails in the spam folder that are all like enlarge your p3n1S and stuff lol. I've never gotten these e-mails before, I guess its just google or something. If you make a googlepages site people can easily steal your e-mail address by adding @gmail to w/e the main url address name is. I'm glad thats not my personal e-mail.

Lucky you.....I get that kind of stuff all the time. Here lately it has stopped :D But i have learned to make a hotmail account to send all that stuff to.

Ah lol, yea i never get any spam cuz I use Outlook Express with comcast, instead of one of the hotmails and stuff like gmail, yahoo. But i do have a yahoo one, made it a long time ago to use it to subscribe to some sites but i never look at it anymore, but i did get a lot of yahoo spam mails.

I have had my gmail account for more then two years now and I still get around 750 emails a day that are spam so I have it so all my mail gets sent to my hotmail account then to my gmail account but still get around 500 emails a day. I have tried everything so I just keep on deleting nothing you can really do.
