Al Ralsky would like you to have thick, lustrous hair. He also wants to help you buy a cheap car, get a loan regardless of your credit history and earn a six-figure income from the comfort of your home. But according to his critics, Ralsky’s not a do-gooder, but a bane of the Internet—a spammer, responsible for deluging e-mail accounts and choking the Internet service providers (ISPs) that administer them. In real life, the 57-year-old father of three lives in a middle-class suburb of Detroit. He started bulk e-mailing seven years ago, when he was flat broke. To buy his first two computer servers, he had to sell his 1994 Toyota Camry. These days Ralsky sends out more than 30 million e-mails a day and raves about the possibilities of marketing on the Internet. “It’s the most fair playing field in the world,” he says. “It makes you equal with any Fortune 500 company.”

If everyone used MailWasher, scumbags like Al would be out of business in no time.
But, hey...he's just trying to make a living.

I hope he starves to death. 
That scumbag lives by me. (want me to spit on him for you?) I saved the article out of the newspaper.
He thinks clogging up the internet falls under freedom of speech.
The way I look at it:
Freedom of speech is when you can state your opinion in a public area where people are also free not to listen, and we won't shoot you.
Freedom is speech is not comming into my house, kicking my furniture out of your way, eating the food out of my refridgerator and yelling advertisments in my face.
Mail Washer is one way, but if people simply quit buying that crap from emails, that fat bastard will starve to death. (stats show they only need one sale out of a thousand spams to make a decent profit)
My new server has spam assasin.

He LIVES by you? You really ought to meet him.....and you can spit on him after you broke his hands.
Well, he lives in a city that borders on mine.
Here is what the Detroit News said

He's a loooser:
Verizon Internet Services has targeted Ralsky, who has fought his way back from bankruptcy, a felony conviction involving fraud and the loss of his insurance licenses in Michigan and Illinois.
So he was a crooked insurance salesman, now he is "Spam King"
Total ignorance:
"Why is it OK for users to e-mail vacation photos to 100 friends, but illegal for spammers to send thousands of pitches?"
Ok let's take a vote.
Who wants to be sent vacation pics?
Who wants to be sent junk mail?
