Not Spam

I was chatting with a friend just now and he was complaining that he has been receiving unsolicited email and he just deleted them off without reading the mail. I wondered aloud if he has signed up for any Mailing Lists on the numerous sites that he visits daily. After thinking hard, he recalled that he did indeed sign up to be notified of upcoming events on a website.

It was so funny because he has totally forgotten about it and cursing and swearing that his email address was compromised when it was not! What "good" memory he has! I know that this friend is not the only person who complains of receiving unsolicited mail when it was he himself who opted in on a mailing list.

He said that if only companies would send out mail that do not fall into the Spam Folder, it would be more effective for them to reach out to subscribers with their message and updates!
