"Legit" spammers?

Is that anything like "honest politicians?"

Re: "Legit" spammers?

What they really mean is "Legit Bulk Mailers". Not all bulk mailers are spammers or even commercial (For example, mailing lists). There are other legitimate commercial bulk mailers (some people do want to receive information from companies they do business with).

However, this could hurt mailing lists, forcing some to unsubscribe and prohibit AOL e-mail address, since they won't have the money.
