End users are precluded from suing spammers, and secondly, it invalidates the
more restrictive state laws that have recently passed.
Blocking spammers with technology will continue to thrive.

Subject: CAN SPAM
| Was this mentioned here?

|
| New anti-spam legislation going into effect January 1, 2004. The
| "Controlling the Assault of Non-Solicited Pornography and Marketing Act
| of 2003" (CAN-SPAM Act) was signed into law on December 16, 2004 by
| President George W. Bush and will take effect at the end of this month.
|
|
| Main Points of the CAN-SPAM law
|
| -Outlaws the use of false or misleading headers
| -Outlaws the use of deceptive subject lines
| -Requires a clear and conspicuous opt-out mechanism within every
| commercial email
| -Requires the inclusion of a valid physical postal address within every
| commercial email
|
| The FTC (Federal Trade Commission) will be strict in their enforcement
| of the CAN-SPAM law and violators may be subject to "cease and desist"
| orders or penalties up to $11,000 per violation. Criminal prosecution is
| also possible in the case of egregious offenders, which can result in
| penalties such as fines, forfeiture of proceeds and equipment. The worst
| offenders will also be subject to prison time.
|
