In case anyone is interested, "s.1618 Title III" also says the contact
information must appear at the beginning of the message.
A technicality, yes.

But more importantly, this was only passed by the Senate; I believe
the House's corresponding bill ( HR 3888 ) explicitly refrained from
making any distinction. No law was ever passed.

So legally, it's still spam.

I would e-mail earthlink.net, but I don't know the procedure for mailing
lists; can list recipients respond, or is it up to the list maintainer to complain?
