      Question we had in work, Why is Spam e-mail called Spam?

      Think it's something to do with a famous Monty Python sketch in a restuarant where everything had Spam with it, the customer complained they didn't like Spam and then they all sang 'Spam. Spam. Spam. Spam. Spam etc etc'

      ie. having no choice but getting lots of something you don't want.
