thousands of customers, Domain Hosting India values its good
reputation. Accordingly, it is important to us that our customers
use our services and the Internet in general , responsibly

to refer to these AUPs. Nonetheless, the following constitute
examples of unacceptable uses of Domain Hosting India.'s services,
which will result in suspension, or termination of the customer's
account.

Unacceptable activities include spamming
(sending unsolicited advertising to those with which the customer
has no existing business relationship, posting off-topic advertising
in newsgroups); spoofing (using a return email address which
is not the valid reply address of the sender or sending an
email message which does not contain enough information to
enable the recipient to identify the party who is really sending
the message; passive spamming (promoting a web site hosted
by Domain Hosting India by spamming from some other source),
trolling (posting controversial messages in newsgroups to
generate responses), mailbombing (inundating a user with email
without any serious intent to correspond), generating a higher
volume of outgoing mail than a normal user (over 10% of available
system resources), and subscribing someone else to an electronic
mailing list without that person's permission. A message is
considered unsolicited if it is posted in violation of a newsgroup
charter or sent to a recipient who has not requested the message.

a request to receive messages. Distribution of mass emailing
