It's an account I no longer use, but decided to check it just for fun.

Good grief, how long has it been since you checked that account?

At least a few months.

You are going to give someone nightmares!

I should create an e-mail address and then post that e-mail address anywhere and see how much spam I get.

Hahaha I just thought of the greatest thing! I should start up a competition on who get can the most spam in their inbox by a certain date! We all open up a hotmail account and then in say, 2 months from now, we just have to be honest and say how much emails we have. No wait, that won't work, I think they have a limit. We need a pop3 provider or something. We have to all use the same one to make it more valid.

I'll start a thread...

In order to get spam you will need to sign up for a lot of freebies, which are not exactly free. You may get more than you bargain for with a lot of spyware.

Yeah, but as long as you don't open any of it you're fine. The best way is to just post it everywhere.

Spam bots will do the rest.

Yep. I did not check it since, I should check it now, or should I wait a year?

I'd laugh I get an email that goes to all customers of the isp, saying mail will be down due to a hard disk upgrade.
