They stole my e-mail address without permission (presumably from Insectnet as I only started receiving it after they became an advertiser) and are sending me spam. I requested to be removed from their mailing list but they are still sending the spam to me.

Me too, I didn't ask for the constant emails and don't want them either.

Insectnet members don’t see other members email addresses (only moderators can see them) and of course InsectNet doesn’t share these precious data. So they must have found your email somewhere else. Put their email as « spam » in your mailbox and you should not be bothered anymore.

Thank you for the reply. I was sure that Insectnet would never give away members' e-mail addresses, and it is good to know that e-mail addresses are not generally visible. It is rather strange that I had never heard of Bughouse until you announced them as a new advertiser, and soon after I started receiving their unsolicited newsletter. I asked them to unsubscribe me twice now, so hopefully they will not send their newsletter any more.
I don't use webmail, so I don't have a spam folder that I can ignore. I actually instructed my ISP not to filter my e-mails for spam because their definition of spam is not accurate, and I get very frustrated when I send important e-mails to people but they are returned as undelivered because their ISP's automated anti-spam thinks my e-mail is spam. Just yesterday btinternet rejected an e-mail I sent to an important Lepidopterist because I included a forum post link in the text.
Adam.

I will inform their owner about this forum topic so that they can add an efficient « unsubscribe » button to their mailing list.

They do have an unsubscribe link on their newsletter, I tried to unsubscribe that way first but it doesn't work. It's just a test page. This is what you see if you click the link:
Unsubscribe Confirmation Page This is the test unsubscribe confirmation page.
When the actual campaign is sent, anyone who unsubscribes will see either the custom unsubscribe page created by this designer, or a generic you have been unsubscribed page.
