Just posting alot of url's w/o the actual news blurb, requires way too much reading to get @ the jest of the matter.
Notice how the Inquirer or Register formats their news.

Lawyers sue spammer

The largest law firm in California, with more than 1,000 lawyers in 18 offices internationally, has filed suit against an email marketing company, claiming it has bombarded it with thousands of unsolicited email advertisements. Morrison & Foerster said its lawsuit against Etracks.com is based on two California anti-spam statutes. The first forbids the use of California-based equipment to transmit unsolicited email to the service provider's users if the provider's policy prohibits such use of its equipment.
The complaint also claims that Etracks violated a second statute because it failed to include in its email messages a subject line with the legally required advertising label. In addition, Etracks failed to include either a toll-free number or a valid return email address for removal from the marketer's lists.
