One man's spam is another man's, er, you get the idea.  I personally 
enjoy getting email advertising ham radio equipment. I do not care to 
get messages about ways to increase the size of various body parts.

I think, though, that the only correct approach for people selling 
things is the following: never send an advertisement to someone who has 
not explicitly indicated to you that he wants to receive such 
advertisements.

Reflectors like this are a gray area in which it's not so obvious what 
to do.  By joining, I indicate that I'm interested in Elecraft products. 
  Does this also apply to accessories specifically designed for Elecraft 
radios?  My guess is yes, if the messages are not excessive.  However 
the final decision is up to the list manager, who will probably tell us 
to end this thread soon!
