Hi all,

I know this is off topic but since we are on an e-mail forum I thought that

you guys would be the perfect people to help me with my SPAM problem.  I

have had my current e-mail address forever "[EMAIL PROTECTED]".  Over

the last 3 years I have had to pay yahoo for the privilege as I have to have

access to a POP3 server so I can download my messages and then review and

reply as sometimes I am on dial up.  I am currently getting about 80 Spam

mails a day.  This is a real pain in the a$$ and to be honest I am sick of

it.  I recently signed up for a free online hotmail address again keeping my

full name in the address i.e. "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"  The same as yahoo

except at hotmail.  No sooner had I signed up I started getting Spam.  I

know get about 15 a day on that address.  Has anyone any thoughts or ideas

with regard to new mail service that I could use for getting mail?  It

doesn't have to be free as I pay yahoo $20 bucks a year for the POP3 access

and don't mind paying that to someone else.  If any of you guys could help I

would really appreciate it.

Cheers,

Kevin

PS, I use outlook for my mail as well.
