making no attempt to hide the name of the mailing list or my name and
address. I'm merely forwarding it to him so he knows that what he is doing
is offending and annoying many people. I can't complain to the provider --
he is the provider. owlsnest.com is a BSD box, most likely running in a
small office or in this guys spare room. A fly by night operation, in
other words.
What I would ask is that each and every member of this mailing list email
owl@********.com and kindly ask him to remove
'Shadowrn@********.itribe.net' and all other addresses at Itribe.net from
his mailing list. Key word is kindly. I would also encourage you not to
ever use his service, especially since its something anyone with 1/2 a
brain could do in a couple hours.
If you persist in spamming the mailing list Owl, we will have no choice but
to appear in Minnesota, as outlined below in the ShadowRN FAQ regarding
advertisements.
Mailing List Advertising Policy
The Shadowrun mailing lists accept commercial advertising for
payment. We offer a fee waiver if you can show us the canceled
check for a $1000 (U.S.) or more donation to the Electronic
Frontier Foundation. One donation per advertisement, please.
If you don't wish to donate, simply post your advertisement to
the list, and the operator of the mailing lists will bill $1999
(U.S). The list operator will donate this amount, minus the
expense of collecting it, to EFF. Please note that the lists
are distributed automatically - messages are generally not read
or checked in any way before they are distributed.
By the act of posting your advertisement you agree to accept
responsibility for the fee, you agree to indemnify the
mailing-list operator against any legal claims from you or
others in connection with your advertisement, and you agree to
pay any legal and business expenses incurred in collecting late
payment. Our liability to you is limited to a good-faith
effort to deliver your message.
Reduced rates and/or waiver of fee are available for Shadowrun-
related and selected other topics of advertisements. You must
consult the mailing-list operator in advance of posting for any
reduction or fee waiver.
Good day,
Adam Jury
ShadowRN Assistant Fearless Leader
