I recommend getting a gmail account at least. So at least you can see all the email coming in ? spam or not, and then decide whether you want to reply or ignore it. Where as now, you are one of the most difficult people to get a hold of, and actually get a reply back.
With a gmail account you can have the spam filter learn what is actually trash and what is potentially affiliates trying to get a hold of you from random email domains. Here is
some info on importing all your old contacts into a gmail account. btw, get in touch with me when you have a minute, icq: 146872343
