I never said that he had to use his primary address, just a valid one.

On the other hand I have no throwaway accounts.  Every address I use is
a primary one.  I have all sorts of methods to block spam.  None of
those methods involves moving my spam problem to someone else.

But what do I know?  I'm just some old fart who grew up being taught
that society works best when you consider the other guy and take
responsibility for your own messes.  Old fashioned ideas I know.
