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 behavior, the Services will be terminated. You should not send email to any user who does not wish to receive it, either at AtoZwebs.net or elsewhere.

AtoZwebs.net may disclose the usernames of accounts responsible for forged email messages to system administrators or users requesting the information.
