Well (referring to the charter) how about:
A communication for which there is no consent given by the intended
recipient.


Hmmn.  Is this message spam?  I don't have any consent from you on
file.

The message of of itself fits the definition. However, it has a context (is
part of an ongoing communication with a list - and within the declared
ambit of the list) such that it's probably not reasonable to consider it
"spam".

Next!
