I am a web master for a college and we have a directory on our website where anyone can look up a students email address and get in contact with them. It now appears that someone has harvested these emails and now our students are getting commercial emails (spam) from a business. Are there any legal actions that can be taken against this person as i have the name of the business and all of the contact info for it. We have a clause that says anyone using this directory agrees not to send out mass email for commercial purposes. Also if we were to take legal action what would be the likely outcome of any such proceedings as i do not want to waste my time if nothing will come of it.
