In this message, Roberta Heck objected something to something:

You should just add yourself to this list...

I see a few names that I know are not scam - so if you're that unsure of what you do - why do you tarnish people with your list? Add yourself and all's fair.

God bless.

Then there was this second message:

We do not send out unwelcome emails. In order to receive our emails you must sign our mailing list. Those are the only people we send our Devotional's to. They forward them to the folks on their email list and some of those are the ones who report spam. We DONOT email anyone, unless they have signed up to receive them. Hence, they also have the option to opt out and be removed from our mailing list at anytime they request. You need to do your home work before you defame a person or group with your smut reports.

She is apparently objecting to the presence of therobertaheckcollection.com or rnrhpublishing.com in the Rhyolite Software group #398 of unwelcome domains.

Contrary to her claims about not sending "unwelcome emails," those domain names are listed because of this spam or unsolicited bulk email advertising a "Friendship Mug and Card Gift set." (That file is a dccm log file.)

See also other public reports of unsolicited bulk mail or spam for therobertaheckcollection.com.

Perhaps Roberta Heck failed to read group #398 of unwelcome domains or the larger list unwelcome domains and imagines that "scams" are the only or main reason why mail is rejected at Rhyolite Software, LLC. Perhaps she imagines that "spam" and "scam" are synonyms. In fact, while much unsolicited bulk email or "spam" advertises "scams," some spam would be legitimate if it were not sent to people who have not asked for it.

Targets of unsolicited bulk email advertising should not need to ask unsolicited bulk email advertiser to stop. Unsolicited bulk email advertising does not "scale." If each of the self-anointed saver of souls in the world sent unsolicited advertisements for "mugs" or other merchandise once per year, then our mailboxes would overflow with more of that junk than pill advertisements.

Other questions are answered in the list of objections about entries in the Rhyolite Software list of unwelcome domains.

Contact Vernon Scrhyver at vjs@rhyolite.com but not this spam trap.
