    I will say that there are always less spam mail when your mailbox is new. However, the "older" the mailbox, the higher amount of spam mail
    I do have yahoo mail, hotmail and gmail. The oldest is yahoo mail and the youngest is gmail. And i do receive mre then 300 spam mail in my yahoo mail but only less then 10 spam mail in my gmail per day

    I used 3 Yahoo, Gmail and Hotmail, Yahoo and Hotmail are quiet problematic, I found that valid emails was classified as junk by them frequently. Gmail has 100% accuracy when it comes to classifying the spams and throwing them to the spam folder. Only one or two spam emails managed to reach my inbox per month. I would say Gmail is fantastic, even much better than most paid email accounts when it comes to detecting and clearing spams.

    you only get spammed only when you signed up for spam sites, or you gives out your mail to some spam network.

    i have a gmail account since last 1year, and had 10 spam mails yet. :D
