We are not a party in this communication, so complaining here on vB.org would not serve any purpose. But the author has updated the test in the email to exclude the link to vB.org. If you have any more questions regarding these emails, i suggest you contact the sender directly.

So you condone the sending of email spam so long as it promotes vbulletin.org?

As above, it's clear that the emails did not come from vbulletin.org, but it sets a dangerous precedent to allow email spamming which directly promotes vbulletin.org mods.

In the meantime, I've received the updated spam email pushing this mod, and indeed it does not include the vbulletin.org link - but I think it's very bad show on the part of vbulletin.org that you are seen to support such behaviour.
