My definition of SPAM is unsolicitied mail coming to me without my express authorization.....

I got the following Email the other day.... Now I get plenty of JUNK, and while I dislike it I just delete it if I have no interest. The key to this one though pissed me off. I have never solicted to get any email from these people.... so by that meaning any email from them is unsolicited or "SPAM". Any they have the Gall to start and end their email stating this in not SPAM.

What do you guys think?

So does this mean via this new BILL mentioned that you can SPAM as long as you state that you are not. Confused???
