Should I ever use online services that blast my email to huge numbers of opt-in email addresses?

We recommend that you be very cautious about this.  Make sure the company is reputable and offers a very good value.  Always ask to do a test to a small list first to see if you get any results before spending big money.

When is Email Marketing considered SPAM?

SPAM is simply sending unsolicited emails to people.  If they have not subscribed to your newsletter or a 3rd party opt-in list then it is SPAM.  If you send SPAM you can be blacklisted from major services like AOL, etc and then no one with an email address at those services will ever be able to receive emails from you.
