Joshua,

I take exception to your subject line, implication and lack of courtesy in
not contacting me and instead jumping to incorrect conclusions publicly.

NetRegistry doesn't spam, the email was sent after a telephone contact by
NetRegistry to an individual at Australia Post, and sent to information
taken from public whois based on the domain name the contact was made on. It
was not known at the time that the admin contact for the domain name was not
the email address of the intended recipient.

You send an email addressed in the first line to myself and the CEO of auDA,
and yet you copy a public list. An apology is in order.

Please account for your reasons for defaming NetRegistry in this manner.
What is your agenda?

By your own reference the definition of spam is:

Definitions of Words We Use
What is spam?
In the case of electronic mail, spam is any electronic mail message that is:

Transmitted to a large number of recipients; and
Some or all of those recipients have not explicitly and knowingly requested
those messages.

Please either point out the large number of recipients or provide me with a
public apology and retraction on this list.

Regards

Larry Bloch
Chief Executive Officer
