RE: SPAM Directly from AT&T Data Networking

Before the gates continue to open - let me be perfectly clear.  I speak
up as an individual and member of the community.  I do not, can not and
will not speak for AT&T.  I am just another of the myriad of workers
trying to do my job and be helpful where I can.  Many of us make errors
in execution and judgment and all we can do is not repeat them.

As promised I will forward all the comments and concerns received for
appropriate action.  Sorry to have fanned the fires.

So AT&T condones the sending of bulk, unsolicited commercial email and
permits its employees to do so and continue to do so until the victim
begs that particular employee to stop?  And then another AT&T
salescritter
can repeat the process?

That's AT&T's official position?

How well do you think this scales?
