Questions:
1) How do we smack some sense into spews?

Very difficult.... we had a similar problem. One bad customer and SPEWS
blackholes not only our corporate LAN but also my HOME address range,
and that of my home ISP, who was not even peripherally involved.

We just had to sit it out, as SPEWS is not accountable, or contactable.
Eventually the listing decayed, but it was a real problem for us while
it lasted.


There is no technical solution to spam.

Neil.
