I understand your intentions were to warn others about using their real
e-mail address, {so let's not argue :-)} but MS does offer a spam warning.
It just doesn't jump out and grab you by the throat.


In the case of these pages, not at all:

http://www.microsoft.com/technet/com.../nntpnews.mspx

http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/...ups/howto.mspx

(Live Search for
msnews site:microsoft.com
)


I was wondering where he would have found out about msnews... eg


Ah. Here's one. Same search. Lower down.

If you enter your real e-mail address, you will likely receive unwanted messages (spam)
because spammers regularly gather e-mail addresses from public communities.
We highly recommend that you use a modified version of your e-mail address.
