Spam

Since I've started collecting domains - noticed that amount of junk e-mail that i'm getting is increasing steadily. Any recommendations to reduce the number of junk e-mails received from people harvesting the whois records?

I'm not sure if your spam came from people harvesting the whois records. As I don't get much spam due to it.

Anyway, you may pay for the whois protection service by your registrar.

Get a private registration. It's too late now, you email is being whored out to many more spammers even now. I currently have 5000 plus spams in my yahoo box, get a junk email address to reg your domains.

get a gmail.com account that one can select all email and delete it fast plus the size is 2gb+ and use that as whois email address.

if you have private protection, how does someone find you to buy then?

They e-mail with the provided WhoIs e-mail address and it gets forwarded to you.
