As the administrator of the MSUG mailing list, I hereby formally
request that you CEASE AND DESIST sending this promotional material
advertising your product to the mailing list. I have received
complaints from other users of the list, and I personally do not
appreciate you continually using this list as a forum for hyping
your product.
It is my sincere hope that you will peacefully discontinue this
abhorent practice. The internet is a big place, and it works
better when we can peaceably and considerately coexist on it.
My suggestion to you is to create your own mailing list for people
that are interested in "SymbMath", and that way you can direct the
advertisements to people that are interested in receiving them.
