I really do not care what you do from this point on... I have consulted a lawyer who specializes in internet activities... The plain and simple facts are: I have broken NO laws... dispite the fact that to 200 TEST letters I sent are possibly annoying to some. If I wanted to continue to send them (and I don't) I could... Granted with people making such a big deal about it (like you) I would have to move around from ISP to ISP. But that would be my business... Again, I do not wish to do this... I am just a person that decided to use a legal program and send some legal emails to a list of addresses extracted from the net. Just like the other people who send unsolicited mail to me.. And since I broke no laws within the country I reside, I guess it's just up to you to accept my apology or not.. Once again, and for the last time I AM SORRY I bothered you and your list... As for hurting you in any financial way. I can see where a large amount of "Spam" could cost you in one way or another.. However, I sent out a total of only 200 emails Of that I am sure only a few could have gone to you and or your list... So I say Please "get over it" and save you further bit's of advise for true "Spamsters" My day's (day) of mailing anything to anyone unsolicited are finished.. I have learned my lesson. The way I see it, if you are going to make more trouble for me, I might as well go ahead and continue to send you and everyone else mail.. I mean if you are going to treat me like a dog, why then should I not continue to bite?? My best recommendation would be to let this tiny little mistake of a couple hundred test mails die.. As far as you putting up any web site designed to embarrass me or make an example of me. I ask that you do not. If this goes to far, I would be forced to attack you for slander.. And I have been assured that since I broke no laws with what I did, Slander WOULD be the word for it... As I said before, as of today, My ISP is dumping me.. Why not just revel in that... Granted I will Likely go and find a new one, but I have lost my deposit and prepaid 3 months of hosting.. So I guess I am paying a financial price aswell.. Enjoy your life... Good luck with your future in making the world a "spamless" place for all... I'll let ya know when I stop getting it on a daily basis... Beyond that, this is the last you will hear from me... Feel free to send your response... Dave Beightol infodave.com
Gee, I wonder what I have to say about that... Hit "Next," please.
