Re: CAN-SPAM Act Rulemaking, Project No. R411008 I am concerned about the proposed requirement for merchants to maintain and distribute suppression lists. The administration of such lists should remain within the company. We don't want to be giving out our clients email addresses and possibly creating more spam, not controlling it. I find it extremely unlikely that a client unsubscribes to our email list (in all cases) because they have no interest in the products offered by our suppliers - and our suppliers shouldn't suffer for that. We also would have administrative headaches if we were to receive a huge suppression list of thousands of email addresses from a large firm, and try to match those to our own list. Our software can't do that. Please fight spam, but let us keep control of our own in-house mailing lists. Respectfully, Dan Cheney Upsala, Minnesota
