yep. but we had an existing biz relationship and it wasnt sent in bulk. thus it wasnt "UBE" or "BE".. it was just "E" which is my right to do. We now only send one but just cause enough of our webmasters were concerned about offending their surfers.

Your arguments are emotional in nature alex. Not logical. I'm not saying there shouldnt be labeling systems or blacklists (which move mail to a bulk box.. not automatically rejecting it). I'm just arguing that mailing does cost me money and that you have to look at regular mail to.

It's easy to get off topic. I know you dont like spam. Use spam assassin and a baysian filter ... a quick rule and the flagged emails into your bulk box for you to read when you choose to... automatically emtpy bulk every so many days or hours. You'll get 1% of what you get now. I use that system and spam doesnt interfere with my day. Then set your mail client to only download headers, not the entire body until you open it and you stopped wasting bandwidth.

The technical solutions are out there, they're free and easy and future solutions (most importantly labeling which would end everybody's arguments cause then surfers who dont want it just dont see those emails).

The only valid unemotional point you made was with regards to sending porn to people who dont want it. My only question would be, why the fuck are you letting your kids read your email? i cant imagine letting a child surf by themselves any more than i can imagine dropping them off downtown with the liquor stores, fake rolex salesmen and dirty old men in trench coats... the internet is not a private place. it's a big huge public street.
