I finally had to give up the email address I have had for over 9 years. I'm sad - it's one I really liked and identified with (twinzrock - I have twins). But I don't know if it's because I used it for ebay or what, but I was getting spammed to death - more than 200 messages a day. It became exhausting to try and delete all of them on a daily basis, so I asked my ISP to delete the account and give me a new address. I was able to get quilter, which really surprised me. I like my new name, but it's just not the same.... <heavy sigh>
I know what you mean - I had the same problem with my hotmail account. I had mine at 9 years too when I started getting way too much spam. I am lukcy i just switched to my current ISP's address with the same beginning. It is frustrating because I still have to check the hotmail account semi-frequently to make sure I am not missing people that didn't get the update about the change.
