I've cancelled two credit cards because their telemarketers wouldn't stop calling me. I think the point here is that, NO MATTER HOW THEY GOT YOUR NAME, any company you do business with should honor requests to not be solicited to by phone, email, or snail mail. Network Solutions apparently has consistently ignored requests for people to be removed from their commercial email lists. I heartily welcome them to the RBL. --Chris Woodfield Network Operations Center Intermedia Communications/DIGEX

I don't really see this as SPAM. It's is annoying, but I would place it in the same classification as a credit card company, one that I hold a card from. sending me junk mail. Since they (Network solutions), have developed this mailing list from infomation you provided to them in registering domain(s). They are entitled to contact you. You may, of course complain, and they (Network solutions), are of course are entitled to take no action.
