Perhaps you could mark the message as junkmail, this will put their address on the blacklists.

Or perhaps you could sue them for all their worth! ;)

Then they'll have to sell all the gold records "The Straits" have earned.
errr....wait...

Are they looking on AMIT?  My e-mail isn't visible and I haven't received any from them.  They know we are all fans of the songs so... :think

Both myself and my husband are receiving them, but it's only me that's a member of AMIT and my email isn't visible, but we are both members of MK.com, which makes me think the email addresses have come from there or MKNews. 
Goin' into Tow Law....

But how is it possible that I also receive it on my officemail? I never give that to website like mk.com, mknews or here.
I will write a mail to mk.com to ask. I can't imagine. They know the law I think, they are a professional organisation.

I have send an email to both Paul Crockford and markknopfler.com telling the story. As soon as I have an answer I will post it here.

Interesting. Did you ever use it to buy tickets on MK.com?

I think that ended up being a hoax.

No I didn't use my officeaddress to order tix. I told PC that in the past I had some conversation with TK and I might have used the office-mail-address once in a while.
He stated like posted before but I am absolutely not sure that it doesn't come from mknews. I am sure it doesn't come from markknopfler.com
Just the feeling I have with those 2 "organisations"
It also is possible that the addresses are collected for a long time from whatever source. I also have ideas about that.
