Fantastic - less reason for you to be concerned. I get the same thing
with
my ISP.. But I also have other accounts.. gmail, hotmail, hushmail and a
few
others. And the great thing about the free ones - technically the
information I provided them may be entirely false and thus have NO
association with myself!
Believe it or not, I have only one email ID and thats from Hotmail. How can
I have a number of others and be able to manage them? I mean, keep them all
in one folder or something like that?

Sure - your main email account may not have spam, and no one is
saying you should sign-up and chance it - but you could create a
free email address on dozens of different servers and use that to
sign up and try new things.. Check that email when necessary (via a
web browser most likely) and delete everything or go through it - up
to you.. But why hold yourself back from trying new things?

My point is.. There is No need for an e-mail address in order to Try
out a piece of software.. Legit Software Company's Never ask for an
e-mail address BEFORE trying out their software!!
That statement is entirely false.. I have many tried out many "legitmate"
software packages from reputable software companies (Microsoft..
Symantec..
Adobe.. so on) and some of the trials have, in fact, required a valid
email
address to download the software.
And Beside .. with My ISP I have 7 e-mail accounts I could setup and
Delete At will!! No need For YAHOO or HOTMAIL..

Most Users Never Relize Where All Their Junk/ Viagra/ Spam/ Sender
Get Their e-mails From!!
Very true - many get them from posting their valid email addresses in
newsgroups such as these. Some get them from signing up for services -
many
services are valid and the user fails to read the privacy statement of the
company they are giving their email address to.
However - to deny a potential software solution trial due to some paranoia
about getting spam (when you could use false information to sign up) seems
ludicrous to me.
