Are You a Spammer?

My money says that there is about a 50% chance that you are a spammer and don’t know it. Why do I think so? It is my observation, that although the CAN-SPAM Act of 2003 is old news, half of the commercial e-mail marketers either ignore the law or simply don’t understand it. I monitored…
