    This mail did *spam* a couple of mailing lists for LUGs, among them
      lug-storm@geocities.com,lug-tuebingen@mail500.uni-tuebingen.de,
      LUG.Wolfsburg@laura.escape.de,Linux-Stammtisch@Infodrom.North.DE,
      linux@unix-ag.uni-kl.de etc.

    Does RedHat need to spam Linux users these days? This is the first time
    I've received SPAM directly from a redhat.com address and not from a
    reseller, but I've received at least two RH-Spams from a reseller already.
    Neiter these mails nor this mail about TechWorld was requested. But I'm
    sure that RHTW is out of question now.

    I always thought that the Linux Community, especially their major
    players, like what I thought RedHat was, would use the medium
    better and honor peoples privacy and don't spam users.

    I hope that this was an exception and not the rule!
