Moral Question: Is it right to traking people email online

[Claude Larochelle]

Myles, if user are willing to give a replying address, and if the adress
they are giving are not used to gather adresses to sell it to every body ,
or for another usage that user don't know, I will say it is not immoral to
do this.  Is really different when you are leaving your address to this
list?

Maybe I just did not understand exactly the point  :-|


Have a nice day,

Claude on vacancy!
