Spamming is the sending of unsolicited e-mail, regardless of size or volume, to persons the sender does not know or have prior
consent to send the message to. Using fictitious e-mail addresses @metromkt.net or any domain name hosted with
CommuniTech.Net is strictly forbidden. Spamming also includes sending unsolicited advertisements to numerous email addresses
or newsgroups and/or generating a significantly higher volume of outgoing email than a normal user. A violation of this policy
extends to clients who send unsolicited e-mail from a domain name not affiliated or hosted with CommuniTech.Net but the mail
message makes mention of a website hosted with CommuniTech.Net.
Metro Marketing allows clients to send mailings to subscribers of their own mailing list. Such mailings must have explicit
instructions to the recipient on how to remove his/her name from the list, and all requests to do so must be honored
immediately. Client agrees not to send mailings to lists provided by an outside agency or individual. Client further agrees
not to provide mailing list services to others. Due to the nature of a shared-server environment, Metro Marketing requests
that mailing lists be sent during non-peak hours, specifically between the hours of 1:00 am and 5:00 am, Eastern Standard Time.
CommuniTech.Net reserves the right to terminate a client's mailing program, whether provided by Metro Marketing or not,
immediately and without notification to client if said list causes a problem with the e-mail services of other clients.
Metro Marketing also reserves the right to forbid a client from utilizing any mail-sending program that jeopardizes the mail
services of other clients.
Due to the consumption of system resources and overloading of the e-mail server, Metro Marketing forbids the use of the
Gossamer Links program by any client.
Trolling, the posting of outrageous messages to generate numerous responses, is also not allowed. Mailbombing, the sending of
multiple messages without significant new content to the same user and/or subscribing someone else to a mailing list without
that person's permission, cross-posting articles to an excessive number of newsgroups, or attempting without authorization to
enter into a secured computer system is strictly forbidden. Metro Marketing reserves the right to determine what constitutes
abuse of this policy. Clients whose accounts are found in violation of this policy may, at the discretion of Metro Marketing,
have their account(s) terminated without notice and are subject to a maximum clean-up/disconnection fee.
