This just popped up on SlashDot and other places. The State of 
California has banned all unsolicited email with no loop holes and 
allows providers, the state and receivers to sue for $1,000 / email 
message. Law becomes effective on January 1st, 2004 and may be an 
important testing group for a federal law. For more information see:
