imaginHost will be the sole arbiter as to what constitutes a violation of this provision.

If YOU violate this condition, YOU will be notified and given 48 hours to remedy the problem. Failure to do so will result in YOU being billed for the overages.

YOU will have 3 days to pay for your overages. Failure to do so will result in YOUR website being disabled within 3 days of YOUR first notice. This does not apply to co-location clients.

If a recipient asks to stop receiving e-mail, YOU must not send that person any further messages.
