    it depends on your habits of sharing the email id publicly ;)

    you mean your friends recieve spam emails from your account but you never sent it , then it means your account got hacked or something.

    One should always have a personal e-mail account which is not shared anywhere else... except friends and family and important business.

    This way, you would remain trouble-free, most of the times. :)

    I beleive that's because you have supplied your yahoo e-mail address at more places than your gmail e-mail.

    I agree with Rightman, that you should have a personal e-mail that you don't provide to any sites or newsletters. You can share it with family,friends and important sites with no spam e-mails so you can be spam-free :)

    Best regards,
    Adel
