Nonsense! There used to be a law making it illegal to mail material that
was "pandering and erotically arousing, IN THE SOLE DISCRETION OF THE
RECIPIENT." The courts sustained it. The sponsor made it very clear during
the floor hearings that he intended it to be used against junk mail.

Then the Post Offal started lobbying and ruined everything :-(
