Quick question - has anyone else noticed a drastic decrease in spam lately? (Seems to coincide with the revamp of Hotmail) I used to get a good 5-15 "Paris Hilton video" or "See Sarah screw a chipmunk" spams a day but lately I'm "lucky" (if you can call it that) if I get one or two.

Wow..i haven't gotten any.

Yet again..I haven't checked the bulk mail folder. I think I'll go on naively believing I don't get any spam and be happy. yea.

Mailwasher does a good job for me... I don't even read what's spam or not anymore. If Mailwasher says it's blacklisted, I'm fine with that. ;) All the real stuff comes out on the top of the list.

I too have noticed a decrease in normal spam, but it seems I now get an email from "hotmail staff" everyother day with advertisments. It used to be once every 4 months with a "policy" change.

They probably got a cut to let some spam through, now even getting a bigger cut to provide the spam themselves...i dunno. :confused:

Oh my, I hope that address was not your personal one.

I have 2 email addresses I use to buy things online/sign up for crap. I expect that many in those 2, but if I had 150 spam a day...id switch.
