My current email get like 90+ junk emails a day so I want to stop using it, but it's also the email address linked with my MSN Messenger ID (not a hotmail address) .. is there an easy way to simply migrate everything to a new email address instead of contacting every single person on my MSN?

I want to move because often people forget and just use the email option on MSN to send me an email and I don't see it amongst the SPAM

you can export a contact list on msn to a file, and then import the contacts again

means you can add everyone at once

but the email address you have is assigned to that particular msn account

I recon the SPAM I'm getting now was from being on MSN anyway I think there was some flaw where people could harvest ID's from MSN's site - anyway I'm fed up with having to delete through all my emails to find the one message actually meant for me.

The interest woould probably be a heck of a lot faster without all the SPAM that flows through it.
