Why is it primitive? Because it wants to prevent any security problems
that comes from html emails? You'll find a lot of companies that send
correspondence and not ads don't use and it's a policy not to use html
in email. Where I work we absolutely do not use html in our e-mails at
all. And our IT department far from primitive. We just did a complete
overhaul of the IT dep't in my location.

As a sales ad or from correspondence with an employee from that company?

How do you know who leaked it? Does the new email say "we bought your
email from xyz company?"
