They say you should use double opt-in, but they're perfectly willing to take their customers' money for "single opt-in", read:mass mailing anyone they've got the email adress for.
This business area has somehow convinced themselves that "single opt in" is OK. It's not. It's every bit as much spam as what 409 scammers do. They deserve to have their mails blocked at the router level if you ask me.
Spam message "Onn the 4th day of Gothmas". Header: mcdlv.net ([205.201.130.144]). Another bunch of The Rocket Science Group LLC spam. Domain was updated 2 months ago. Contact "Sharon Weng" (Don't bother contacting).
Spammer enabling company. Why, with so many comments from WOT users complaining about them, they still get a good rating, I do not know.Perhaps they have found some way to get around the WOT rating system? If so, another sign of skullduggery?

I keep getting spam from list-manage2.com. That is a mailchimp.com domain. Not good. Mailchimp needs to do more to stop spammers from using their service. Update: Lots of people are using mailchimp to spam. Spam also comes from mcsv.net but that is mailchimp. I have changed my WOT rating for mailchimp to I DON'T TRUST!
This site is being used to spam me. Enough said?
Lots of users have flagged this place as a Spam hotspot. How can they possibly have the rating Excellent site?
Stupid slim bag MailChimp keeps on send me spam: 2015-05-27, this time in a STUPID language that I can't even read! WTF!?!?!?

(previously...) They obviously aren't listening to me. Spammed me again on 1/2/15
These guys don't vet their clients very well.
I told them just to put me on their black list and never ever send me email again.
An email service for spammers:
"Send 12,000 emails to 2,000 subscribers for free."
"Up to 50,000 subscribers - Send an unlimited number of emails with a monthly account".
