While we assert copyright in the name of SPI on the entire consultants page, that copyight does not extend to the individual pieces of information. An email address is not itself protected by copryight, and it would be a lie if we claimed that it could be _copyright_ infringement to spam an address found on the consultants page. I do not think there is any way that we, as publisher of the web page, can do anything to make spamming the addresses less _legal_ than it is already. Of course we could add a request not to spam (though I doubt it would change anything), but we should not make any false representation that it has a legal effect. > Please Cc [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hm, let's see how well cc'ing outside addresses work when I read the list through Md's usenet gateway... -- Henning Makholm "What has it got in its pocketses?" -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
