Comment In Japan... (Score 1) 308
While I was studying abroad in Japan I met a few people with really bizarre (cell) email addresses. I asked why and they said to prevent receiving spam mail. Only problem was, I couldn't email them from my Hotmail or Yahoo accounts, I guess because of the strings of periods (i.e. ........@docomo.net). Anyways, I've also started getting a good amount of spam on my Gmail account after a couple months of nothing at all. Too bad.
