Well, my personal opinion is that freemails should be eliminated without 
mercy, but I have to live with business plans of our company. BTW, how 
should I 'verify' user information or 'prevent' them from creating 
multiple accounts? But anyway, I'll try to persuade marketing guys to 
limit account creation to our IP pools.
Thanks for your opinion, anyway.
