I, too, was sent 4 unsolicited emails from AAC--2 were messages from the Yahoo BCMD site--probably the ones I read--and the others were "advertisements" for the Cadillac and Ferrari company websites. Since I neither emailed you nor received any "link" from you, I must assume these were generated solely by reading posts on the Yahoo site. Seems to me that you are selling something--I would assume GM and Ferrari are compensating you for emailing their logo and website URL based on the number of hits? I would also assume that you are also paying Yahoo for the "privelege" of automatically generating email advertisments? BTW, since I have never heard of you or your company, I am not a "friend, buddy, acquaintance or mentor" of yours unless you are using an alias of which I have no knowledge. So, obviously, I am aware of no "research passed on" by you either. Unsolicited email is just the same as postal junk mail--except that they have to pay a few cents to have it delivered whereas delivery costs you nothing. Does not your "junk mail" contribute to clogging the bandwidth and ultimately slowing down email? It is also possible Jeffery did not receive your personal email until after he posted. I have had a friend in Manitoba send email to me in Virginia and have it take 24 hours to arrive.
