Probable reason for the flack is that the sneakemail addressee thought that
a sneakemail address would not ever GET any spam - the sneakemail.com home
page sort of indicates that with 'stop spam with snaeakemail, the spam
stopper' as the name of their address link (dragging their home page address
into the IE link shows that as the link's name.)

>From my experience (see above) - it may not STOP spam but the spammed
address can be deleted (so it no longer exists) thereby stopping spam from
reaching you via that address.

Too bad that the above sneakemail addressee made such a big thing out of
it - it could have been a learning experience for him.
