Sign up now and you’ll never receive any more junk email.

Or so the email says -

National Do Not Email Registry

I know you are all tired of getting junk mail.

The following link is a National Do Not Email Registry, if you elect to submit your email address they will remove you from junk mail.

You can also file a complaint with them if junk emails persist:

Reality, however, is somewhat different – whilst there may be a ‘Do Not Call Registry’ there is, and never has been, a ‘Do Not Spam’ registry.

The FTC did actually look into creating a real registry of this type a few years back but nothing ever came of it : http://www.ftc.gov/opa/2004/02/spamcam.shtm

    Oh if only such a system really did exist and work it would be brilliant.

    Damn right it would be Col, but not too sure how it could be enforced.
