In Response To: Re: How much Spam??? (Fred)

another idea for avoiding spam.
I don't know if it all works, but some of it do work.

1.
state your date of birth as something too old or too young
to be attractive for advertisers.

2.
never ever, no matter what, state your country of residence as the USA.
state it as Ethiopia, Afganistan, Moon, or some other 3rd world country
that its oficial language is not any major worldwide spoken language.
not french, not english, not spanish, not german italian etc'.
yes paupa, yes zaire etc' .

3.
do use the spam filters.
on my hotmail account they filter more then half the junk.

hope this help,

Erez
