    3. Hi Dotta, :-) As is RootsWeb's definition--Spam is the name given to any unwanted email. Generally, it is mass mailings offering get rich quick schemes, advertisements, porn, virus warnings, hoaxes, etc. It is not welcome on any list and it causes many problems. The massive loads these mass emails produce can cause the computers at RootsWeb to grind to a halt. Maiser, a former genealogy server like RootsWeb, was brought down by a single spammer (the person who sends the spam). If you cross post to more than a few lists, you may be considered a spammer by the RootsWeb computer. At that time your message will be blocked, and possibly your name and address will be blocked from RootsWeb too.

    3. It is usually a lot of mail sent out on several lists by an individual. It may be something that one particular person does not want to see on a list. It can also be considered something that one individual wants to complain about If you have received any of the advertisements, they are called spamming. It is a lot of junk that some people do not consider genealogy. There are those who like to complain about almost anything and if they call it spamming, then they can get more reactions from others. Roll Calls are considered spamming and they are not allowed on many of the lists.
