This prohibition extends to the sending of unsolicited mass mailings from another service, which in any way implicates the use of BWHost.com whether or not the message actually originated from our network. Mailing Lists: BWHost.com’s mass mailing rules also apply to mailing lists, list servs, or mailing services you may contract with. The policy is stated as follows: An acceptable mailing list will be focused at a targeted audience that has voluntarily signed up for your e-mail information or that has made their e-mail address available for distribution of information from you.
