So, what do to when a web hosting company which is apparently tough on spam decides to spam you? Tough call. I received 9 copies of the following e-mail:

I won’t bother posting up the actual HTML content, but you can see above how the e-mail was sent by their systems with the subject “Start your website today.” I’ve never dealt with this company in any way… Really makes you wonder about the lengths people will go to for business.
