(And can we charge > NetSol for > the amount of mail we receive between when we submit the change order > and when it actually gets done?) i'm not sure when it actually started, but it was recently discussed on another mailing list. From: PRIVACY Forum Digest Wednesday, 14 February 2001 Volume 10 : Issue 03 (http://www.vortex.com/privacy/priv.10.03) Excerpt: If you don't want to participate in NSI's bulk/marketing bonanza, you'll need to avail yourself (*now* that you'll know about them) of their opt-outs. Buried within their privacy policy it says that you can send notes with the text: remove bulk access or: remove domain respectively, in the subject lines of e-mail to: [email protected] with a list in the body of the message detailing the domains (for which you are the registrant) that you wish to opt-out. It is not detailed how such requests are authenticated, nor is any particular format for the lists specified. If a human is reading those requests, they're likely to be getting pretty busy very soon!
