Have you ever heard of not giving ALL member adresses to some
spam mailing company? Please!

Since PP-DE is not FDP and is not receiving millions of euros in
donations, it's just not going to happen. But of course you can
request 10.000 Euros from PP-DE or whoever you like and
then we can talk business. Untill you have that kind of money
at hand ... I don't see any use in discussing this any further.
