  • Opt-Out Processing TimeframeThe sender must honor the recipient's request to cease receiving commercial messages within 10 business days.
  • Header Information AccuracyRouting data and the originating domain must correctly identify the person or business initiating the message.
  • Physical Location DisclosureEvery commercial message must contain a valid postal address, which can be a street address or registered P.O. Box.
  • Subject Line RequirementThe message must not be deceptive and must reasonably align with the body of the email.

Answer

Opt-Out Processing Timeframe pairs with honoring requests within 10 business days. Header Information Accuracy pairs with correctly identifying the sender in routing data. Physical Location Disclosure pairs with containing a valid postal address. Subject Line Requirement pairs with not being deceptive and aligning with the email body.
The correct matches align the fundamental requirements of the CAN-SPAM Act with their practical definitions. The law prohibits deceptive subject lines and false header information, mandates the inclusion of a valid physical postal address, and requires a clear opt-out mechanism that is honored within 10 business days.
