05/15/2005

However, the FTC recently has done more to enforce the law against spammers in the black hats and proved some guidance on how those of us wearing white hats can reasonably comply with the Act. Since e-mails can promote more than one product and can be used for many purposes, the FTC’s guidance is important to understand how to craft and send e-mails that are CAN SPAM-compliant.
