in UCE. Customers of Bluevesta® may not host, or permit hosting of,
sites or information that is advertised by UCE from other networks. In
addition, it is not acceptable to transmit bulk email through remote
SOCKS, HTTP or other similar proxies who in turn make a SMTP (TCP port
25) connection to the destination mail servers. This technique may
result in account suspension or termination. Violations of this policy
carry severe penalties, including termination of service. In order to
prevent unnecessary blacklisting due to spam we reserve the right to
occasionally sample bulk email being sent from servers.

penalties. Upon notification of an alleged violation of our SPAM policy,
Bluevesta® will initiate an immediate investigation (within 48 hours of
notification). During the investigation, Bluevesta® may restrict
customer access to the network to prevent further violations. If a
customer is found to be in violation of our SPAM policy, Bluevesta® may,
at its sole discretion, restrict, suspend or terminate customer's
account. Further, Bluevesta® reserves the right to pursue civil remedies
for any costs associated with the investigation of a substantiated
policy violation. Bluevesta® will notify law enforcement officials if
the violation is believed to be a criminal offense.

Fee" of $250 and your account will be reviewed for possible immediate
termination. A second violation will result in an "Administrative Fee"
of $500 and immediate termination of your account. Users who violate
this policy agree that in addition to these "Administrative" penalties,
