Tips
1. Share This Email ID to Limited Friends:
Although its nice to have a Facebook Email ID, its still nicer if you don’t share it with too many people or make it public. This may attract spam.
2. Tweak Privacy settings to receive mails from only friends:
If you have already made your FB email ID public, just head on to your privacy settings, Choose “Who can Look me up” and change “Everyone” to “Friends” or “Friends of Friends” as you wish.
