Would that involve forwarding the spam message to the list?
Or perhaps he could have inserted a link to the appropriate site.
Sure....and perhaps instead of telling him he spammed the list with a spam
message, some folks might point out to him that he referenced a site that uses
Spam to market its products.
We get links to supposedly reputable profit oriented organizations on the
reflector all the time: could any of these be possible spam? Hummmmm?
If those organizations used Spam to market their products/services than
one could advance the premise that be mentioning them, one is condoning their
use of Spam.
I beleive there are some folks who simply refuse to purchase goods/services
from organizations that use Spam to market those items.
