I just love the "disclaimer" I got on a junk email this morning:

**************************************************************

ANY EMAIL ADDRESS PUBLISHED ON THE INTERNET THAT
INVITES COMMERCIAL SOLICITATIONS IS DEEMED AS A
COMMERCIAL ADDRESS, AND AS SUCH IS ELIGABLE FOR
ETHICAL AND LEGAL EMAIL SOLICITATIONS FROM DIRECT
ELECTRONIC MAIL MARKETERS.

IF FOR ANY REASON YOU OBJECT TO RECEIVING THIS MESSAGE
PLEASE POLITELY REQUEST REMOVAL FROM MY LIST BY CLICKING
ON THE REPLY BUTTON AND ENTERING "REMOVE" IN THE
SUBJECT LINE.   IF YOU DO NOT DO SO, I MUST ASSUME YOU WISH
TO RECEIVE FURTHER MAILINGS.


Needless to say I can't recall ever inviting a commercial solicitation on
the 'net. And of course I replied and "politely" requested removal via the
subject line. And of course it bounced...
