Heh better then my all time favorite was the "mailbox is full" reply from an abuse@ address for an ISP based in Nigeria who had a few servers trying to open umpteen fraud accounts :D
I've seen my share of 800-pound gorillas (we're talking the 10M+ customer range) who have bounced postmaster@ and/or abuse@ due to 'mailbox is full'. So it isn't just small ISPs in little corners of the world... My favorite was an abuse@ bounce from a smaller shop that read something like: 451 <abuse () smallshop com> Mailbox Full of complaints, even though we nuked their butts 3 days ago. (I'm sure many readers of the list know *that* feeling - you found and fixed the problem before the first complaint arrives, but you still get deluged by more complaints for another week or so...)
