You know whats funny? AOL spams the living shit out of their own customers, that's the smart part! Sue the competition, then use their exact same techniques to earn more bling per member.

The reason these assholes lost against AOL is because they were TARGETTING AOL members for their mail. They must have had lists of nothing but AOL and were mailing the shit out of it. That's no fucking good.

"The spam ring had allegedly targeted AOL members with unwanted e-mail advertising adult Web sites. "

Not to memntion there was already a court injunction against them from 3 years prior.

Moral of the story: If you mail.. don't ONLY mail AOL.

Here's the problem..... (from the legal papers someone posted)


"AOL also alleges that defendants forged the tern "aol.com" within their e-mail massages, thus creating the false impression that the e-mail messages originated from, or at least were endorsed by, an AOL member if not AOL itself. "


There's a difference between "spammers" and legit email marketers.
