The owner of Underworld has been in business for a long time and he's truly one of the nicest, hardest working guys that I've met. I'm not sure about this most recent mailing, but I know in the past when we discussed the specifics of his webmaster list that it was acquired through his own webmaster program and content sales website.

If it's truly spam then so be it. I think it's important to note that the E-mail you received has a REAL opt-out on the bottom, all you've got to do is click to be removed.

My point? I've seen a lot worse offenders. This guy's got a reasonably small list and he's marketing to it with a real means for recipients to opt out. If you never participated inquired for information about any of his products, services or participated in his programs then I suppose you've got a beef but you have to cut him a little bit of slack for A) identifying himself and B) having a true means to opt out. It's not like it's some mystery bullshit email.

Cheers,

Brad
