Their web site - http://www.iname.com looks legit and the following is
their policy on spamming -

WHAT IS YOUR ANTI-SPAMMING POLICY?

       Description:
       What is your Anti-Spamming Policy?
       Solution:
       iName offers a permanent, personalized and secure e-mail address as
a valuable
       Internet service. Individuals and organizations who abuse the open
Internet
       community and their e-mail service by selfishly sending out unsolicited
       communications are violating their Service Agreement and putting
legitimate
       Internet services and commerce at risk.

       We therefore take a hard stance against the sending of unsolicited
       communications. Our policies prohibit the use of this e-mail service
for the
       sending of unsolicited communications as stated in the Terms of
Agreement and in
       the Acceptable Use Policy. Given the importance of this issue we ask
for your
       help in STOPPING SPAMMING.


       Mission Statement

       We take a hard stance against spamming and the sending of
unsolicited e-mail
       and investigate each occurrence. We believe this activity is harmful
and disruptive
       to the Internet community. Reducing spamming activities is a high
priority and as
       such we act fast if we determine that spamming has occurred.

       Summary of our goals with respect to spamming and unsolicited e-mail:
       1. To investigate every occurrence of reported spamming and to
protect users
       from being harassed by unsolicited e-mails.
       2. Cut spammers off fast so they cannot benefit from our service.
       3. Prosecute spammers when possible so that they do not continue
with their
       behavior of sending unsolicited e-mails. Interfering with an
Internet Service
       Provider is a Federal crime. It comes under the jurisdiction of both
the Federal
       Bureau of Investigation and the Secret Service. The FBI has formed the
       Computer Crime Unit to track down and prosecute people who break the new
       laws relating to computer crime.
       4. Maintain effective audit information to respond to issues
regarding suspensions,
       terminations or legal proceedings.

Now if we could just find out under what ID Neal Horsley is receiving
