If I was to send targeted email to potential business clients without their permission, is that considered Spam?. Even if they would be interested in what I have to offer?.

I had recently seen a lawyers article who stated that a mail send to one particular person, of who you think that he/she might be interested in your "product/service" is not considered spam.
You just have to make sure you actually address the mail to that person and if you want to send it to more people you would have to address each letter/email to them alone.
Do not know if this is correct, but that´s how I have done it ever since.
JJH.EU - DAA.MOBI - KOA.EU ... Make offer ...
chase, that seems like a good distinction. any chance you have the link to the article you read? sounds interesting.

buy an approved target email list, saves the hassle then if anyone complains you could blame the mailing company. Even better, let them visit a site. If there interested in your product that much, maybe they'll search for it.

There is no such thing as a targeted e-mail list. This would be definately spam and would get you blackballed in a minute.Originally posted by DeCal

Is it unsolicited?
Is it commercial?
Is it email?
If you answered "yes" to all three questions, then it is probably unsolicted commercial email.

Please do not send private messages via dnforum.com, email me directly.
Even an email to a single person that is a business solicitation or advertisement can be considered spam. It'll be low enough to fly under an ISP's radar, but it's spam just the same. Someone will take notice. Not worth risking the loss of the domain name in question if you ask me.
Whoa! back up a sec. You must be assuming the sender is a cybersquatter and the domain name can only be used in violation of a trademark.Originally posted by spamurai_warrior

Spam, in and of itself, is not going to automatically cause loss of the domain name. However, the solicitation may be used as evidence in a TM action. A lot may depend on potential uses for the name that would not violate a TM and who you are trying to sell it to. While I have not used it, direct solicitation (spam) can sometimes be an effective way to market a domain name.
... Unless your mailings cause people to complain or send the email through a SpamCop type service... then you are at the mercy of the AUP's of your ISP, Registrar, etc.. It would be fairly easy for them to tell that the email was meeting the conditions for UCE (as jberryhill outlined for us).
Obviously... I am far more on the conservative side of the issue than some though...
