Even worse...
What if you have more than one e-mail address that comes into your inbox? Most "opt-out" methods involve sending an e-mail with "REMOVE" in the subject line. I have to reconfigure my e-mail client so that the remove request comes "From:" the correct address.

I am familiar enough with my e-mail client to be able to do this. My parents are not. How do the Senators propose to help them with the torrent of incoming mail from "legal" spammers, addressed to their various addresses?
