Joe, just wanted to let you know that I'm still looking for an answer
here.  I'm talking to a few internal people and trying to get into the
hands of the right group.

Thanks for your patience, I'll let you know as soon as I hear something.

Thanks,
Greg

Subject: [SECURITY] Excellent NANOG talk: "The Relationship Between
Network Security and Spam"

Hi,

If you didn't make it to the Chicago NANOG, I'd encourage you to check
out the presentation by Carl Hutzler and Ron da Silva of AOL Time Warner
entitled "The Relationship Between Network Security and Spam:"

   http://www.nanog.org/mtg-0310/pdf/hutzler.pdf

It does an excellent job of hitting the nail on the head regarding what
folks are facing, including:

   -- the growing problem of IP space hijacking
   -- the role of malware infected/hacked PCs
   -- some fascinating hard statistics on what AOL's seeing and blocking
   -- mentioning the fact that you can request copies of the complaints
      that AOL receives from its members about spam that appears to
      originate from your space

A number of other security related talks were also presented; in most
cases
copies of the presentations are available as links from the NANOG agenda
page (see http://www.nanog.org/mtg-0310/agenda.html )
