> the US Congress has approved the first national bill against spam, or junk
> mail.
>
> The bill, which had previously been approved unanimously by the Senate,
does
> not prohibit commercial mail or even mass mailing of commercial mail, but
> forces senders to identify themselves correctly. Other measures in this
> anti-spam bill include the following:
>
> - It establishes hefty fines, and even sentences of up to five years in
> prison for senders of spam.
>
> - It prevents senders of unsolicited commercial mail from harvesting
> addresses off websites and obliges them to include a mechanism so that
> recipients can indicate whether they want to receive messages in the
future.
>
> - It encourages the Federal Trade Commission to create a list of e-mail
> addresses that do not want to receive any kind of spam.
