yahoo mail provides a service Yahoo! AddressGuard, to create and use many of the free Disposable email. it's not fake email kind of thing. you can actually use the same email address for receiving the mails.

How to create?

Go to Mail options -> Spam -> Set up a disposable
or in Yahoo Mail Classic Options -> Mail -> AddressGuard

format: Basename-keyword@yahoo.com

The Basename is the unique ID other different from your Yahoo ID. which should be available for you to use. Basename will be the same in all of your disposable email address which you will create.
keyword will be differ for every new disposable mail address. For instance, if you are creating an address to receive an email newsletter from Widget Designs, your keyword could be "widget" or "widgetdesigns". and then you can set the folder where those mail should be delivered. you can also send mails using this new mail address by checking on "Allow messages to be sent from this address".

when ever you start getting spam through any of your disposable addresses, just delete the address. and can say bye to spam.

How it is more meaning full then using gmail plus sign for filtering spam?

in gmail you have to use your running gmail id and then you concatenate a new keyword with "+" sign. the spammers can split up it easily and can use your running gmail address easily. but in case of yahoo disposable mail address, they can not remove the remaining word after "-" in your mail address. they have to use it full. otherwise you can't receive the mail. so it is much meaning full.

by: The 'Plus' Side of Gmail
you can use 'plus'(+) sign for filtering the mails in your gmail account. Like many other Email providers, Gmail supports the standard "plus" addressing scheme. But just what is it, and how can it help me?

The "plus" method of addressing lets you add additional words to your account name (the "left side" of your email address.) For example, if your email address is "amitshahc@gmail.com", you could add "+office" when you give your email address to members of a club to which you belong. So, your email address would now be "amitshahc+office@gmail.com". But why would you want to do this? Think of the "plus" word as an extra "keyword" or "tag" that you can use to better manage your messages.

Using this example, say you email an invitation to your colleagues in a office asking them to rsvp to the invitaion. You ask them to reply to "amitshahc+nope@gmail.com" when sending you a response, if they don't want to come. and reply to "amitshahc+ofcourse@gmail.com". Assuming they follow your directions, You can then set up a Gmail Filters to automatically route emails to specific Labels based on the addresses. It's a simple example, but the uses can be numerous.

Another use is when you are shopping online. When asked for an email address, use something like "amitshahc+amazon@gmail.com". That way, whenever you get future emails addressed to that address, you'll know that it's either from Amazon directly or from someone to whom they sold your email address. This can be a somewhat effctive way to track spam. Just be aware that not all email systems recognize or accept "plus" addresses. In fact, some spammers even strip it out completely, but it's a cool tool, none the less. The best way is to just try it and see if it works for your application!

Gain access to your Gmail inbox while you're on the road,through your cell phone's browser.
by Scott Spanbauer

GMail is wonderful, free, and ubiquitous. Thanks to its support for the POP3 and IMAP protocols, you can access your Gmail inbox via Outlook, Thunderbird, or other e-mail programs in addition to using the standard Web method. Alternatively you can read your Gmail messages on your cell phone through your phone's browser by navigating to Gmail's Web site. Some phones (including my Motorola Razr V3 with T-Mobile service) won't display standard Web sites, unfortunately, though they will display sites designed to support the Wireless Applications Protocol (WAP) using the Wireless Markup Language (WML). Google's WAP-compatible Gmail site is http://m.gmail.com (don't leave off the 'http://' part-unlike the browser on your PC, your phone's browser may not add that prefix automatically).

Gmail's
mobile site is perfectly functional, but the company offers something even better for Java-compatible phones. The Gmail Java app promises faster performance than the Web interface, and it supports attachments better. To try it, visit http://gmail.com/app and click the big blue Get Started Now button. After you enter your mobile phone number and click the Send Now button, Gmail will send you a text message with instructions on how to download the application. If neither the WAP page nor the Java applet work on your phone, you may be able to see your Gmail on your phone by configuring your cell phone carrier's e-mail system to download messages from Gmail via POP3 or IMAP. Consult tip #6 of "Thirteen Simple Ways to Bring Order to Your Inbox" for instructions on how to do this.
