One small correction: When you solicit an ad (like when you ask yahoo to 
enable popmail, on the condition that they can send an ad to your mailbox) 
it is NOT spam.

Spam = Unsolicited Commercial and/or Bulk EMail.  In this case, you 
solicited the mail by agreeing to yahoo's terms of service, so it is not  spam.
