6. SPAM POLICY
This site (www.saveasart.com) does not allow any propagation of SPAM or any unsolicited email. The mail server does not allow relay nor does it have any external users that are able to send through this site. There are no internal users that can send SPAM either. Keep in mind that the SPAM that is sent on the internet is usually sent from a location other than the perpetrators system because that perpetrator does not want to receive the hate mail or DDOS in return, thus the SPAMMER uses a return address that is spoofed (address that he/she does not represent) and not valid or relays the message from other than their originating location so that the return email does not come back to them. If you would like to stop SPAM email, please forward the message you receive including all mail headers to your Internet Service Provider so they can track down the location of the originator to have them stopped or blocked. Realistically, this is a challenge due to the methods that the SPAMMERS use (some methods are now considered illegal), it can be very difficult to track them down and sometimes it is easier to just delete the email and move on.Also, keep an eye on the continuing effort for new legislation about SPAM and what can be done legally to prosecute the perpetrators. I look forward to being allowed to pursue the SPAMMERS and prosecute them to the fullest extent of the law.
PLEASE NOTE:
This site does not advocate SPAM or Unsolicited Advertisements nor will it ever advocate SPAM or Unsolicited Advertisements. Anyone that uses deceptive methods to propagate SPAM through other than honest methods is not worthy of being acknowledged as a legitimate business or person. To send any information whether it is pornographic or advertisement spam by using any system other than the originators system is just plain DISHONEST, thus making the message trash just like it's originator.
