You must first define Targeted E-mails before you can decide if you think it is spam.

I define Targeted Emails as "Target Marketing" if the sender is personalizing each email and it is being sent to someone that is in the industry and may have a particular need for the information contained in the email.

If the emails are not personalized and they are being mass mailed then I would call these emails "Targeted Spam". There is difference!

I have personally spent over 16 months collecting data on over 500 companies in the adult industry. This is my personal contact information and I use it to contact people in the industry to let them know that I have an adult product that they may be interested in using on their site or sites. I consider these Targeted Emails and not SPAM!

Targeted = Marketing... That's how I define it.
