      Anyone who doesn't have multiple email accounts (given the number of "free" providers) is just begging to have their one (or few) accounts eventually overrun.

      Note that it's not just a matter of exercising care in where you use it and who you give it to but, also, how careful those places are with their own accounts! I.e., if anyone you've given your email address to has their machine/account compromised, then expect your email address to be public knowledge!

          I've used the same email for 10+ years but get very little spam..
          Paid spam filtering and using a client I can add rules to helps greatly.
          10minutemail is also great to use when you're just signing up for something.

            my main BCN address gets spammed pretty good....but the traps on the server whack probably 98% of it. Very seldom does spam make it to my inbox. I created this mailbox when I established the site in 2001....

              I will try with client rules but... this is my work email, i'm always very aware of risks, i give my address only to prof. suppliers, i suspect someone has sold my address, damn he... now the spammers works as a net i think, if i block one address many others pops out.. lets wait and see..
