I'm wondering if this is becoming an increasingly new thing?
In the last few months, I've gotten several e-mails from agents that I have queried with not a rejection or a request but rather SPAM!
I won't mention names but, is it just me or is it in poor taste to turn around and use your query mail-list to push either your own book, other services you provide *which cost money* home based businesses that you are now apart of on the side... and the like?
One SPAM mail I recieved I hope was a mistake, a case of hacked e-mail because I don't want to know about house listings in your area... which so happens to be thousand upon thousands of miles from me, in a different country.
Curious if I'm the only one that would rather get a rejection, then spam, and wonder if you have time to copy and paste whatever you are pushing, how is it you don't have time to copy and paste a form rejection?
