Wow thanks for the headsup! How many emails a week is considered spammy I noticed a couple come through but They were things I clicked on so expected a little.

My advice would be to just use the links found on MSE .

No other sites are really needed :-)

That way there is no duplication of entries & you'll not usually be directed to spammy sites.
