Sure it does.  Spam is unwanted email.  From a  company, no matter the
company or the intent of the user, unsolicited email /is/ spam by
definition.

From WordNet (r) 3.0 (2006) [wn]:

  Spam
      n 1: a canned meat made largely from pork
   >>>> 2: unwanted e-mail (usually of a commercial nature sent out in
         bulk) [syn: {spam}, {junk e-mail}]
      v 1: send unwanted or junk e-mail
