I would not consider a rare work related email as a spam attack. Most firms that seek new clients engage in some form of targeted advertising.
There are a few things that seperate the email from Recovery Knowelage from spam. 1. Appears to to a rare event. 2. It is targeted and directed ... i.e. is not an advert for tulip bulbs. 3. Presents a real product from a small company that has been around for many years. When one posts to a public forum like IBM-MAIN or even joins a public forum some privicy is sacrficed Best wishes Avram Friedman On Fri, 14 Jan 2011 05:57:02 -0700, Steve Comstock <[email protected]> wrote: >On 1/14/2011 1:33 AM, Shane Ginnane wrote: >> Any/every-one else getting spammed by recoveryknowledge ?. >> Must have been done as a harvesting of the list as both addresses I use to >> post have been hit.
