Lastly, the Support files in the program you are using may have the answer to your question so please do investigate these resources before calling tech support.

17. SPAM, Unsolicited Commercial Email (UCE) and Bulk Email: Tango Hosting ™ takes a zero tolerance approach to the sending of Unsolicited Commercial Email (UCE) or SPAM over our network. Very simply this means that customers of Tango Hosting ™ may not use or permit others to use our network to transact in UCE. Customers of Tango Hosting ™ may not host, or permit hosting of, sites or information that is advertised by UCE from other networks. Violations of this policy carry severe penalties, including termination of service.

a. Violation of Tango Hosting's ™ SPAM policy will result in severe penalties. Upon notification of an alleged violation of our SPAM policy, Tango Hosting ™ will initiate an immediate investigation (within 48 hours of notification).

e. As our Customers are ultimately responsible for the actions of their clients over the Tango Hosting ™ network, it is advisable that Customers develop a similar, or stricter, policy for their clients.
