Before I do the whole "I forgot my Twitter password" dance, would you care to summarise what these e-mail notifications are about?

I forgot which ones I unchecked but here are the email notification boxes now.

News about Twitter product and feature updates Tips on getting more out of Twitter Things I missed since I last logged into Twitter News about Twitter on partner products and other third party services Participation in Twitter research surveys Suggestions about people I may know on Twitter

Pretty sure "Tips, Things, News, Participation" points are all new.

4 additional checkboxes for various marketing things like surveys and tips.

What would bother you more? A sponsored tweet or spam in your e-mailbox? Why don't they just use their own channel to send me spam?
