AOL's ongoing efforts to fight spam were rewarded recently when a Virginia court awarded the company almost $7 million in damages.
The court ruling was an historic victory in the fight against spam. In its suit, AOL had complained that despite earlier injunctions, spammer CN Productions and its conspirators had transmitted more than one billion junk email messages to AOL members since 1998.
