I am currently moving every one of my mailling lists to GMail and I am using it for sign-ups and then modifying my address afterwards to a private account if the service seems to be reputable. What about you?

What was your first piece of GMail spam? How much spam have you recieved? Do you use GMail as your primary email address or is it your catch all address for sign-ups?

Cheap Software for you

That was the only gmail spam that I've gotten. I've been getting spam at that address, but it is spam sent to a mailing list I'm on, rather than directly to my address.
