Spamming is any unsolicited email. Any promotion, information or solicitation
that is sent to a person via e-mail, without their prior consent is
spam.
Examples of Spamming:
- Any e-mail message that is sent to a recipient who had previously
signed up to receive newsletters, product information or any other
type of bulk e-mail, but later Opted-out by indicating to the
sender that they did not want to receive additional e-mail would
be considered spam.
- Any message that the recipient feels was sent to them unsolicited
is spam.
- Any e-mail message that is sent to recipients that have had
no prior association with the organization or did not agree to
be e-mailed by the organization is spam.
What is not spam?
- An e-mail message is not spam if the recipient in any way has
requested e-mail to be sent to them from the sender or sender's
organization.
- An e-mail message is not spam when sent to recipients who have
agreed to receive information or promotions from a partner organization.
Why you do not want to spam. The following problems
may occur:
- Upset customers
- Listed on anti-spam blacklists
- Loss of Internet access
- Lawsuits
Spamming is not black and white. What it
comes down to is that if the recipient says it is spam, it is.
