"Now let me expand the rant a little bit further. My primary email address to the world is ike AT pigott DOT name. It has been for years, and I was fortunate to snag the domain so I can keep it for life. However, this has created an issue, with regard to spam. It seems that my email address is perfectly valid for RECEIVING email from anyone. However, when I click to UNSUBSCRIBE from the list, I get a notice that tells me that my email address isn't in a valid format. Seriously. The companies that provide the opt-out automation will not allow me to unsubscribe. Ever. And they have yet to answer my emails about it." - Ike Pigott
