It seems that someone with some money has hired a lawyer (I think in the UK) to sue SPEWS, according to the Register. Good, I hope they get them. In the war on spam, they are the annoying ones. Or maybe I just think that because my ISP is listed in SPEWS because Topica is hosted there, and their doesn't seem to be a good way to be a legitimate bulk mailer and not be listed in SPEWS. One of the reasons why I continue to keep our CRM company out of the bulk mail business, which I guess makes them affective.
