Does anyone else feel like they are abusing the mailing list?

I seem to be getting a lot of advertised email from them recently and I think its a bit too much. I understand the need to make money, and I have to option to unsubscribe from the list but doing that I might actually miss something important.

Maybe they feel they will make money spamming people with advertisements from companies advertising spam solutions..

You can adjust your privacy settings in your account to remedy the issue. Just select the following option within your privacy settings:

"Please keep me updated on HostingCon and future events"

This setting will only send show updates and newsletters.

Yeah I do get the emails from this but don't look at them as spam really as some have offers for HostingCon attendees. But like Rob said, you can easily opt-out for the emails in your HostingCon account.

I gave up and created a rule to put it in the trash. :)
