These things are starting to get out of hand.  Time for the government to
step in, if the industry doesn't clean it up itself and "self-regulate"
unsolicited e-mail.  A good example to follow is telemarketing.  There are
strict rules about the time of day that calls can be made; a prohibition
against blocking call display (many mass e-mailers fake their return
address); and you can demand to be put on a "do not call" list, failure to
adhere to which can result in the supension or cancellation of phone
service upon a complaint to the telephone company.
