Gail, I don't know what spam is. But when you said disgusting, I thought of my son and daughter who had aol and told me they received disgusting material and they changed providers. I have had mindspring for 10 months and I have not seen one crumb of vile, yuk material. My daughter changed to lds.com and that ended that. I would change in a heart beat. Good Luck Baguilar@mindspring.com
