It's not really about spam protection but rather fraud protection. This forum is all about fraud prevention and so in the unlikely event that we need to track down a real user, it's much easier to do so with a real email address. Coming from the fraud industry, you'd be shocked how much fraud actually comes from free email providers.

I sometimes wonder how many of those free email providers would have a viable business model if it wasn't for the multiple scammers' accounts they host
