I have Yahoo, Hotmail, an ISP-account and a university email account that I juggle. Hotmail is for old, old friends, yahoo is more workaday, the ISP-account is for personal interest listservs (like this one) and the university one is for university work. The worst was always the Hotmail but then I didn't check it for a month, it lapsed and I had to reactivate it. Since reactivation I get absolutely no spam on it. I never get spam on my Yahoo and have maybe received 3-4 on my university account. I check my ISP-account via Mail and it seems to be filtering pretty well.
I've always assumed that I'm not found that much by spammers because I don't spread my email around that publicly. I figured that Hotmail got so much spam because it was hotmail (although I've never had the problem with yahoo).
Is it because I'm on a Mac or some other reason?
