Being blacklisted by Spews

Jill,

We (at Genuity) would only disconnect a customer if they continued to 
violate our acceptable use policy after being given a warning to shape up 
and comply.  If they were sending a lot of email to subscribers of a 
newsletter who had signed up to receive it, that would be OK.
