I read in a recent Newsweek article that the gmail server "reads" the e-mail and sends you spam relating to keywords mentioned in the e-mail you send and receive. (example: you mention you ordered your wife a nighty from Victoria Secret and you get spam for such related topics.) I already get enough spam that I am able to filter through Yahoo! I don't need any more! I guess Google did this to keep the e-mail on the Free side, but I would avoid it because of this. Maybe someone with an account can let us know if this is true or not.
