Earthlink Triumphs Over 'Alabama Spammers'

Earthlink announced Tuesday that it had settled a lawsuit against two alleged spammers. As part of the agreement, the spammers will pay Earthlink an undisclosed amount of money, as well as cease sending unsolicited e-mails.

Earthlink filed the lawsuit in February 2004 against the "Alabama Spammers," who were given that name because of their frequent use of phone lines in and around Birmingham, Alabama. The settlement is pending before the U.S. District Court in Atlanta.
