Absolutely. The American legal systems seems to be predicate on the
ability to sue anyone for anything if it seems vaguely offensive to you,
for very loose values of offensive.

Until HotMail and AOL cease to provide SPAM filters on their service I
wouldn't be substantially worried, however, so long as you provide users
a way to "opt-out"[1], since that's *more* access to "free" speech[2]
than somewhere above thirty million Americans get. :)
