Hi SweetMacTips! Your recent free Amazon Prime account post caught my eye and I looked it up and noticed there's actually some fine print in that otherwise awesome deal. According to this page on amazon <http://www.amazon.com/gp/help/customer/display.html?nodeId=200500380>, it says, "When you sign up for Amazon Student, you'll receive e-mail alerts for discounts and promotions. If you don't want any more Amazon Student e-mails, you may cancel your Amazon Student membership. If you do this, your Amazon Prime benefits will also end when the membership is canceled."
So basically, when you sign up, they have free reign to spam your .edu address. Just thought it was an important caveat that people might overlook.

matthewmang askedThat’s a good point. All the better to set up a rule to throw anything from Amazon into a certain mail folder :)
