include posting private information about a person without his or
her consent, defaming a person or business, and knowingly making
available code that will have a deleterious effect on third-party
computers. Where there are allegations that your on-line activity

claims raised by the third party.

include, but are not limited to, the following: Spamming (sending
unsolicited advertising to those with which you have no existing
business relationship and posting off-topic advertising in

valid reply address of the sender or sending an email message that
does not contain enough information to enable the recipient to
identify you); Passive spamming (promoting a website hosted by
NetspaceOnline.net by spamming from some other source); trolling
(posting controversial messages in newsgroups to generate
responses); Mailbombing (inundating a user with email without any

user); Generating a higher volume of outgoing mail than a normal
user (over 10% of available system resources); Propagating chain
letters; and subscribing someone else to an electronic mailing list
without that person's permission. A message is considered
unsolicited if it is posted in violation of a newsgroup charter or
sent to a recipient who has not requested the message. Making an
email address available to the public does not constitute a request
to receive messages. Distribution of mass emailing programs is also
prohibited. All recipients on a mailing list must have personally
subscribed. Mailing lists may not be used to distribute unsolicited
email. If you are repeatedly mailbombed or attract such behaviour,
the Services will be terminated.

NetspaceOnline.net or elsewhere. NetspaceOnline.net recognizes that
email is an informal medium; however, you must refrain from sending
further email to a user after receiving a request to stop.
You may not alter
the headers of email messages to disguise their identity or to
prevent users from responding to the messages. NetspaceOnline.net
may disclose the usernames of accounts responsible for forged email
messages to system administrators or users requesting the
information.
Violations of the
NetspaceOnline.net. policies outlined herein can sometimes result in
massive numbers of email responses. If you receive so much email
that NetspaceOnline.net resources are affected, NetspaceOnline.net
staff may shut down your mailbox.

in violations of system security, NetspaceOnline.net reserves the
right to release all usernames of users involved in such violations
to system administrators at other sites in order to assist them in
resolving security incidents. NetspaceOnline.net will also fully
cooperate with law enforcement authorities in investigating
suspected lawbreakers.
