I wonder if any organization can be convinced to not add a donor to their database, even if the person requests zero contact. I imagine that they keep the names of donors in all circumstances. I don't know what HOBT does (and will find out), but I know that the mailing list is considered a primary asset of the organization.

I don't think we have ever sold our mailing list, but I am pretty sure that we don't have a policy on its use, either.
