It would be probably be more difficult to enforce a law against selling lists of email addresses, but I seem to recall that it does exist.
I'm becoming increasingly reluctant to give my email address to anybody these days. Even if it's someone you trust, there's always a risk that someone will post it on a web site to send you an ecard or invitation to some party, never realizing that spammers operate those sites to collect addresses.
