Yahoo! Now Offering YMail.com and RocketMail.com Addresses
Yahoo! Mail has been around a long time. As a consequence, getting yourself an e-mail address that isn't a non-sequitur followed by 17 digits (we hear that H0r53D1aper374689@Yahoo.com is still available!) is darn near impossible. So to better serve its customers, Yahoo! is opening up two new domains for registering e-mails: @YMail.com and @RocketMail.com. Rocket Mail was actually snapped up by Yahoo! back in 1997 as the basis for Yahoo!'s free e-mail offering, but registration of new Rocket Mail addresses has been closed ever since.
You probably still wont be able to get JoeSmith@RocketMail.com or YMail.com, but you just might be able to squeeze a Smith in there somewhere. [Source: USA Today]

Yahoo, Microsoft, AOl are all a spammer's very best friend. They make it so easy for spammers to register multiple email addresses so they can have a field day. Complaining to these companies is a waste of time - they simply register another domain and continue to allow these same spammers to register more email addresses so they can send out more spams about viagra, lotto, etc., etc., etc., etc.
