Over the holidays, i've noticed my inbox is *exploding* with SPAM. So i've decided to track down and kill every single one of them. So far I've found: A site in a Qwest Cybercenter Dialup at Bellsouth relayed through Cornell.edu A Concentric Network site relaying via an "invisible" relay in Japan An ISP in Italy At least 2 other dialup-ISPs in the US. And that was 8 hours worth of SPAM only. About that Invisible relay in Japan - JPNIC has this policy that it wont show you address referrals for companies with address space within their domain. This makes it impossible to track down open relays over there (which figured in 2 different pies of SPAM) I'm going to track down *every single one* of these guys and get their accounts closed. Whats disturbing is the amount of this coming from the US now. That used to not be true. -jcp- Joseph C.
