The whole idea of using your email address as a password permitting others to send mail to you simply is misguided. It contravenes everything that security people know about effective password schemes. We need to destroy spammers and the ISPs that collude with them, using the legal system. That will take time, but in the end, it is the only thing that will have a lasting effect. |
