Re: the discussion on commercial use of e-mailing lists: I wonder if there
is a connection between this and the flooding of lists with ads such as
Syallbus.  These ads seek more detailed personal information about list
subscribers.  I have never received the free book or magazine promised.
Though I am not referring to Syllabus specifically, I am suspicious
that such ads are really a ploy to build a mailing list to sell to snail
mail hucksters.
