It's unsolicited, and comercial in nature, and sort of bulk. It is spam, but a relitivly mild infraction. He could have done worse. For example, harvesting the list archives, demunging them (trivialy done with regular expressions) and emailing us all from an open proxy in $THIRD_WORLD_COUNTRY with bogus forged headers. Nobody get any ideas. My impression on 'advertisments' on vox.... Putting a quick plug in your sig is fine, as long as your posts are considered worthwile contribuions. "For sale" ads are fine on vox, if you're trying to get rid of some random computer hardware, or other geek toy, and you don't try to make a living off of it. As above, you should not do this if you don't frequently make worthwile posts Any other thoughts? > On Thu 02 Oct 03, 7:49 AM, Jay Strauss <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> said: > > Hi everyone, > > > > My Oracle consulting business has been on life support for the last year, > > so about 8-9 months ago I started doing mortgages.
