One topic that really needs to be addressed is the responsibility of the carriers on Email Spamming by customers. Should the carrier disconnect a customer that continues to send unsolicited emails even after a individual or group asks to be taken off their distribution lists. As a carrier, we at ACSI have issued a statement that we cannot be responsible for customer traffic. I know that legally we cannot filter any customer traffic, but I am really getting sick of getting emails about customers that continue to send unsolicited emails. We as a community need to come up with a common carrier policy on how to handle such customers and how to deal with complaints. If anyone else is sick of this, please let me know so maybe we can have this brought up as a topic of discussion in San Fran. Eric _______________________________________________________ Eric D.
