Looks like the CAN-SPAM act sucks.

Sucks. Hard.

But Mumma met with an unpleasant surprise: He was the one sued in federal court by Omega World Travel and its subsidiary Cruise.com, which demanded $3.8 million in damages for defamation. Mumma, who owns Oklahoma-based MummaGraphics and runs a one-man Web design and hosting shop at Webguy.com, filed counterclaims against the companies and CEO Gloria Bohan.

The 4th Circuit Court of Appeals sided with the alleged spammers. In a little-noticed opinion issued in mid-November, a three-judge panel acknowledged the e-mail messages in question may have included a false Internet address and a nonworking "From:" address, but concluded that they nevertheless were permitted under the federal antispam law known as the Can-Spam Act.

2014 is going to be a good year. More content, more streamlining. Be a part of history!

Most anything the government sets up totally blows, the only thing that blows more than the Can-Spam-Act are the spammers themselves...........Wink

Battle is the most magnificent competition in which a human being can indulge. It brings out all that is best; it removes all that is base. All men are afraid in battle. The coward is the one who lets his fear overcome his sense of duty.

I think the world has gone to crap, if it hasn't already, when a spammer is on the winning side.

In response to Bio-Hazard #29290
The Do-Not-Call list works fairly well.

I suppose if you don't mind getting calls everyday from the folks that are ALLOWED to ABUSE the system.
