List members may be interested in another Spam case ruling - the first
from a Scottish court (as far as I know) and the second time an individual
has successfully used the small claims procedure to fight unsolicited
email.
There's quite a bit on the web reporting the case - both the BBC and the
Daily Telegraph have posted reports on their websites - see
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/main.jhtml?
xml=/news/2007/03/07/nspam07.xml and
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/6423113.stm Also Mason's Outlaw
site has a very comprehensive report at http://www.out-law.com/page-7831
Mr Dick has set up his own website giving chapter and verse - so if you're
really interested see http://www.scotchspam.org.uk/transcom.html
Have a good Friday!
rgds,
Kevin Broadfoot
