Who do YOU think the worst offenders are? Did you ever wonder why everybody who signs up for a hotmail or a yahoo account gets dumped on with tons of spam? Could it be that hotmail and yahoo sell email addresses to spammers? People who use many of the lesser-known free email services only seldomly get spammed. We may of course most reasonably suspect that yahoo sells email addresses to spammers because they actively promote and they host lots of porn sites. At least they used to be into doing that at one time in the recent past. I don't know if they are still doing it. Anyway, you know how almost all porn sites promote themselves. By spam. Many spammmers use yahoo and hotmail email addresses. Some of the spams actually originate from yahoo and hotmail servers.
