the web site www.mail2web.com seems to be a plus for many users who want to
check their email remotely....we have been promoting it for years.

Recently, I ended up using it to check one of my many email accounts that I
keep quite private.  I have kept the address quite private for over four
years to prevent it from being a victim of spam.

Low and behold I have started to get spam to that email address now.

Some of our users have started to complain that they, who only use the
Internet for email, have started to get spam after returning from vacation.
Those same people would have used a relatives computer to manage their email
with mail2web as well.

Is it fair to say that mail2web either sells email addresses by capturing
them from their smtp servers or are spammers somehow harvesting the email
addresses from mail2web?

Any thoughts are appreciated.
