Greetings,

Does anyone know anything about this "proposed federal legislation" - this
came in a spam - blech...

<snip lengthy spam part> - btw it's about how easy it is to collect email
addresses and send tons of spam yourself with their new software!

this is all the "additional information" they had to offer...

I really really hate spam, the beginning of this one looks like they're
trying to do something to make it legal...

perplexed and irritated,
Linda P.
(Genevieve hardly ever gets spammed.)
