You could do what I have done with my secondary yahoo email account
(rolly_dog2000@yahoo.com) UNLESS the subject line as a special 4
alphanumeric code in it at the very beginning the messeage gets deleted and
into the trashbox! So far I have gotten 0 spam mails becuase everything
that has been sent gets pitched! he,he,he...
Unless of course you got the 4 alphamumeric character special code. =)
Which at this point only me and my sister have. He,he,he..
