Actually you're right, it really isn't spam.

A message is Spam only if it is both Unsolicited and Bulk.


http://www.spamhaus.org/definition.html

This wasn't bulk by any definition. In fact, a Usenet post could never
really fit the exact definition, but a post across multiple newsgroups or
repeatedly would certainly fit the spirit of spam.



A single post, suggesting a good source, from an individual, for a company
to which they are not related, isn't spam.
