Dear Postmster at Syllabus.com:
 
I own the mailing list [log in to unmask] and the attached message
was sent to the list.
 
It is off topic and is blatant commercial advertising.  As a result, I
shall request the postmaster at the listserv site the blind-l list runs
on to filter all mail posted by your organization to all lists at this
site and to recommend to all other listowners they take similar action
to prevent your users from flooding the net with jibberish.

The offending message follows:
ps: normally I would wait for your rresponse to this notice but since it appears the offending firm has
its own internet site I will proceed forthwith.
