If I want to solicit prospective clients, can I go to their site, grab their email address and send them an email about my services?

Since my email is only going to one recipient, is it still considered spam?

Now, if I compile a list of 100 emails and send all 100 at the same time my email, then it is spam?

Thanks
Matt

Let me give you the definition of spam according to C-NET, "the compulsive urge to send huge amounts of unwanted email by individuals (or companies) to a larger number of people". Is this your purpose? If yes, then consider yourself as a spammer. If not, then good.:)
