At least under California law, your newsletter doesn't qualify as
"unsolicited commercial advertising" because you DO have a preexisting
relationship with these recipients.
Ironically, your message hit my spam filters because you have a Yahoo return address but the message didn't originate from Yahoo. ;-)

More importantly, do these laws have any teeth? I assume that most spam still has either offshore or undetermined origins.

I haven't read the CA law but I wish that these would focus on the validity of return paths since that is a pragmatic standard. The determination of what is, or is not spam, may be subject to considerable interpretation.
