Are we allowed to use @maquis.com email addresses for social networking invitations?
NO!!! **MAJOR** No! Mostly, because of abuse of the forwarders, by people letting social networking sites like Facebook, MySpace, ICQ, Yahoo! IM, and others, access their address books or contact lists in their email accounts, and sending out a “Mass mail” saying “Join this site!!!” or “I didn’t see you on here, Join and talk with me!” We’ve decided on a permanent ban against this practice. If you have @maquis.com addresses in your email contacts list, *please* do not let social networking sites like those listed access your contacts list to “invite” people to use that service. Chances are, we probably do already. Not only are repeat invitiations annoying to some, but it is also a major security breach to YOUR email account, as you are giving a third-party access to your entire email account — which is exceptionally unwise. You get one warning about his problem. If you fail to heed it, further action can be taken, such as removal of your @maquis.com address, suspension from the listse
