Bill Giving them your real address is optional. You didn't have to give it . I have been using yahoo for over a year and they filter 99% of SPAM to my bulk folder automatically and since I didn't give them my home e-mail, I am not receiving SPAM there at all. Also on the screen where you register you could have opted out to receive marketing (SPAM) e-mail. You gave them your e-mail which was optional and you didn't deselect the option not to receive "marketing". You can't blame yahoo for something you had full control over. - - Fanus - --- Bill Triffet <btriffet@earthlink.net> wrote: > Harvey, > > Yes. I see that now.
