EU officials are pressing for faster enforcement of new rules against unsolicited emails than previously planned.
EU Enterprise and Information Society Commissioner Erkki Liikanen said the new EU rules were a priority and should be adopted into national law books by next week ahead of the October 31 effective date previously planned.

It seems something good can come out of the EU after all...
Today I received a spam from Comedy Connection (mail address). It was sent to the address I use on this site through Microsoft bCentral, who obviously doesn't use double opt-in on their mailing lists.
I hope spammers will now harvest Commedy Connection's mail address and spam them plenty.
After having been a loyal customer in Fælleskassen for 15+ years, I have now moved my accounts to Jyske Bank.
My reason for moving is simply that while Fælleskassen is using BEC's lousy java applet, Jyske Netbank has taken the trouble to ensure that their homebanking system works with free software. Yay!
BBC Online reports: "From October, a European Union directive will make unsolicited e-mails illegal across member states."
Apparently something good can come out of the EU.
Oh, so I just received a spam from Viktoria R.B. in Lusaka of Zambia, asking me if "any ladies of my household" would like to visit her newly opened Nail Studio.
Viktoria, repeat after me: SPAM IS BAD!
Some morons from China Panorama Business Travel, Ltd. decided to spam the address I am using for this forum. In return I'll publish their contact email address here and hope that other spammers will harvest the address and mailbomb them.
Btw., Denmark banned spam in July 2000, more than two years ago.
Do not underestimate the value of print statements for debugging. Don't have aesthetic convulsions when using them, either.
