I didn't say nor meant to imply that a single countrys legislation would be sufficient. When there are many countries that send virtually no spam, it's because they have legislation, enforcement and a suitable infrastructure to prevent it. Implement the same legislation+ enforcement+infrastructure everywhere else and spam is gone. Of course there are millions of reasons why it will never happen, for instance countries who explicitly allow spamming. /Per Jessen, Zürich
