How can I get a Gmail Account SPAMMERS

[shifter]

The only downside to Gmail. Wanabe Gmail Spammers. If you have a Gmail account, you probably already know what I'm talking about. If you haven't received these, consider yourself lucky. I get at least two of these every week. I'd rather have real spam then these desperate emails from strangers with strange names. For example:

quote:sir/madam,
i need to know how can I register for a new gmail account.
i went into the site but it only has the login facility but no signup facility.
can you help me out regarding this.
thanking you,
kesavan

quote:Hi,

Can you give me some light on how to create a new gmail account. I tried to register but couldn't.

Thanks,

At least this guy tried to make an effort:

quote:I'm an active duty soldier stationed overseas and gmail would be perfect for me since I can't really take things around the world with me. That space of email would be ideal for me but I can't sign up without an invite. Is there anyway you can hook a soldier up with an account or invite or something? milan@gmail would be sweet. Thanks for your help

Any other gmailers out there want to vent on this annoyance? Or at least tell me I'm not the only one!

I feel for you and other people. I wouldn't bother anyone like this, I would rather wait when it is made available to the general public.

I didn´t get anything like that. Not from strangers and not from anyone I know. They all gave me freedom to choose who I wanted to invite. Most of my friends didn´t have any idea what gmail anyway, and others who new, didn´t actually know what to do with all that space.

But I find it usefull as I can e-mail myself papers from work and read them home without carrying my portable HD arround.

Shifter, don't post your address if you don't want email!

I had posted mine in my blog, and I did get one such email. It's not spam in the traditional sense; it's just people jonesing for Gmail bad enough to beg and grovel (did *I* do that?).

From what I recall, they'll be releasing it to the public in August or September anyway, which will be here before you know it.
