Vern,
This particular mail was about SOX specifically:
<quote>
Hello Peter,
.....At the Operating System level wouldn't it be advantageous to be able
to show your SOX auditors
that if there were any changes to items in key files you could show
precisely when the
change was executed, who executed the change, what the information looked
like before and after
the change and how the change was made?
If this sounds like a tool your SOX auditors are recommending, please call
me for additional details
or a free trial of our Stitch-in-Time® OS/400 Database Integrity software
product.
Warm regards,
Mark Spakowski

We don't have SOX or anything like it in Belgium, the mail was sent to an
old address (which I never filled in on their site, and only use on
Midrange.com).
So this qualifies the company as spammers, in my view. Period.

Re: Unbeaten Path International
Hi Peter
I have mixed feelings about this company - they claim to work by high
ethical principals, and I have talked with Milt Habeck, the founder,
and find him to be reputable. At the same time, they can, IMO, be
over-aggressive in their sales area.
They do market a product made in Europe (Tight As a Drum, software
change management, I think) that might account for some "confusion"
about their market.
I did not receive any spam from this person, BTW.
