Hi Atom, It meets my definition of "unsolicited commercial email"... I was not aware that LOPSA had cut advertising deals for revenue. (And yes, if it was O'Reilly or whatever, I'd be equally surprised and disappointed.)
I did click the "opt out" link at the bottom of that email which then sent an email back that said that I've been unsubscribed from all further LOPSA mailings, so that should be the last one I get. - Will > On Jun 26, 2014, at 1:31 AM, Atom Powers <[email protected]> wrote: > > I can't speak for LOPSA, but this looks like a targeted offer from a > potential sponsor.
