Most spam I receieve says I can unsubscribe, but usually it just gets you on more lists. I believe Abraham when he says they will allow permanent unsubscription, but I think our time would be better spent convincing him that spamming for the Atlantis Casino (I think) is not time well spent and it is a poor use of the internet's resources. As a good measure of spamminess - I would love to hear the response rates - or to see a sample email. That said, I must confess to being a spammer twice in my life too. I sent out loads of CVs and cover letters, carefully mail merged using Word, hoping that just one of the companies would be interested in hiring me. I didn't receive a single response... ;-) Humbly fighting injustice when I see it, Mike _______________________________________________ RLUG mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.rlug.org/mailman/listinfo/rlug
