Re: Secure, but inconvenient

I am surprised that many of you receive 'spam' via the Ebay inbox. I have yet to receive anything other than the original 'welcome' message that explained the My Messages center.

The Ebay inbox *should* be for a) account related messages first and foremost (billing, passwords, login issues, etc., etc.) and b) selling/buying/marketing related messages second (opt-in). The My Messages inbox is really an adjunct/complement to any regularly (or not so) checked inbox. Yes, it is still susceptible to smart phishing schemes, but could be used for improved customer relations, *if* it is not abused by Ebay marketing.
