Not all, but a large percentage. Unfortunate as it seems, when ever email is offered free of charge, it attracts users that are content in doing the things on the Internet that most of us decent folks hate. You know the saying, you get what you pay for... Personally, I could care less if Hotmail, Yahoo, Gmail, and any others like them never get removed from the spam lists. -- Best regards, Chris The cream rises to the top. So does the scum.
