I agree Portee44, I don't like it either.  Also I have had to adjust the filters on both my Sympatico and Yahoo email accounts because I found out some (not all) of their messages to me were being automatically sent to my spam box and I was not seeing them.  They claim the reason it is re-routed is to prevent people from being spammed.  I personally am not comfortable with that and did not have problems with spam on SH.  Also, a member is not even allowed to send messages until they reach a certain level.  That too I have mentioned to them and they are looking at.

I will let them know the concerns.
