Don't know what intentions were, but news.erols.com and oneill.net leads
me to believe you probably want to contact Clayton O'Neill at
coneill () erols com.

Was hit by that, too...the host was id'ed as hmm.colo.erols.net as
well as luser.oneill.net. Not too wild about it -- I figure SMTP hosts
identified by DNS is fair game, but generally regard any other questionable
access as potential abuse cases.

hmm.colo.erols.net doesn't exist in the DNS, so I'm not sure offhand whether
this was spoofed or not.

Clayton, you know anything about this?
