Yeah, I always use correct information (although the one that asks for my url is a bit useless, as it could be any one of 20 or so LOL). I was running a server-side spam filter pretty damn hard there for a while, and missed LOADS of emails (I think it's even blocking ccbill signup notification emails now
) but -- 99% of the emails i get from sponsors are "5,000 New FHGs Added!" and then proceed to list all 5,000 with my code. Having absolutely no use for FHGs -- DELETE. (seriously, do these make anyone money except the top 50 / high traffic TGPs anyway?) After a few too many "Look we've added another 18 billion FHGs" emails, I'll typically opt-out of the mailings if that option is available.
What I'd rather see is a more robust solution like many mainstream newsletter publishers are using. On sign up for a program, offer checkboxes for the newsletter content.
Here's what mine would look like
[x] New Content Addition Notifications
[ ] New FHG/HFS Addition Notifications
[x] New Paysite Additions
etc...
Now THAT would be handy
bigass lists of fhgs? no thanks
