Spam Test gmail vs hotmail
 

I did a little experiment.

I signed up for a gmail account and a hotmail account, and didnt give the email address to anyone or link it on any site.

Gmail Account had zero spams.
Hotmail Account had a little over 5,000 in the two months

:helpme

Hotmail still exists?

rebranded under outlook.com

I use gmail for everything. Very rare that spam gets through.

I have a hotmail account but can't really use it because of the amount of spam that gets through.

Hotmail is so 1999

AOL is the future.

Hotmail... good for users. Terrible to spammers!

I find Gmail's spam filter too aaggressive and have to turn it off so I don't miss anything important.

I have a googlemail.com account, its 9 years old and it's used daily, still today no spam, I mean absolutely nothing. On the other hand in 2010 I opened a Facebook account and created a Hotmail email address for it, I log into it from time to time to check on it and I have 11,000+ emails and nearly all of them are spam. Viagra, dating, free products. Same thing for my AOL email account spam galore.

I love my Gmail account!

So is #LinedYellowNotePads :winkwink:

so it means hotmail is sharing account names? wow

I have 32000 mails on my Hotmail account hah
