do you have a "trash" email address?

[illusion88]

Do you have a trash email account? I use hotmail for that reason. Just have an account in case I need to put my email to register for soemthing I dont care too much about, or something im pretty confindent will send me spam. Anyone else do this or do you all use one email and one email only.

yep, i have a hotmail account for the same reason.

yes... the old yahoo mail address I made in high school.

supersmart1@yahoo.com

Spam the hell out of it so the inbox fills up, please. They keep increasing the storage size and I just wish the 500 Spam mails I get a day would just start bouncing back and help fill up the spammer's mail boxes. Probably not effective, but I can dream, huh?

I used to have gmail as my spam mail account, and hotmail for personals.

I've been using Gmail with Thunderbird as a client though, and Gmail has become my main, and hotmail is more disposable now.

 

[CheesePoofs]

yes. Or at least I did (I think hotmail deleted it )

I have 3 trash mail accounts. I use them only for things that have no personal information or messages in them.

 

[Azndude51]

I use gmail for my trash e-mail account, I forward all my e-mails from my real account to the trash one so that I only have to check one e-mail.

 

[monk3y]

I use ONE of my hotmail addresses for junk. My gmail acct has become my primary.

 

[NiKeFiDO]

yep, my hotmail is trash.
