How does the legislation prevent that? As long as people publish their email addresses - they are public domain and will be treated as such - do you want to stop mass snail mailings mailings as well? As long as people publish their information it is going to be used/abused - that is the nature of these people. I personally am against spam - but my address is in the public domain - there is nothing that says they cannot take it - and just because the US makes a law against it does not make it wrong in the rest of the world. That is something that the US has seemed to forgotten in the last few years. But this is getting too WAY far off topic now - enough from me ;)
