OK I did not want to say anything here but what the hell:

Because you are abusing this list to promote your product. Do you see anyone 
here promoting MYOB or Quickbooks? That is what you're doing. How can Dieter 
possibly benefit from that? You obviously do not have anyone interested in 
"YOUR" software otherwise you would be preaching to them. Your fork might 
resolve one problem though. Some time ago I suggested to Dieter that he 
should have two mail lists. One for paying customers and another one for non 
payers. Your spoon (sorry fork) can serve that purpose. And please do not 
pretend to be mighty good doer ooooh blessed one.
Everybody here knows you only do this for one reason and that is profit. I 
have nothing against profit or business in general. However I do not like 
people who pretend they want only to help others while they only try to help 
their own wallets. (like for example US government)
