Hey Zango - the answer is "No!"

I just got an email from Zango's VP of Corporate Development.

I'm not sure exactly what they're up to now, but Zango has a history of engaging in questionable activity.

A few months back I got a similar message from Zango wanting to "partner" with SpamButcher. We of course told them no.

This time it sounded like they were interested in licensing SpamButcher - as opposed to just wanting us to bundle their software. However, I can only assume their real motive is to use other products as vectors for installing their code.

Subject: Business development opportunity

I would like to offer my users a spam blocking application.
Please contact me to discuss how we can potentially distribute your application to them.

Thank you!

Not interested.

SpamButcher has a strong policy against bundling with adware or other 
similar software.
