[vox-tech] postgrey is dangerous? spam is SPAM?

[Jeffrey Nonken]

Correct.  "Hormel does not object to the term, but insists that it be  
spelled in lower case so as to distinguish it from its capitalized  
SPAM trademark. Hormel objects to Spam's 'product identity' (for  
example, images of Spam cans) being used in relation to spamming, and  
has filed lawsuits against companies which have attempted to trademark  
words containing 'Spam'."
