| 1962 | I love to cook with wine. Sometimes I even put it in the food.


But not soon enough. It's an absolute shame that this parasite managed to evade Earthlink's PIs and the law for more than a year, and caused so much harm to Earthlink's reputation. I had a special filter in my procmail scripts just for Earthlink spam. Earthlink got a $16 million judgment against him, but they spent tens of thousands of dollars in doing so, and will probably never see a penny of that recovered. >;-(

No, no, no. About 199 to go. See this URL.

If the gummints had any backbone, they could toss these guys in jail and the whole world would be very, very grateful. What? Toss them in jail? Well, the first one on the list is a convicted felon for insurance fraud. Need I say more..

Hang them all. Why can't email account providers also be forced to prevent mass emailing and all those secondary relays that allow spoofing? The technology needs to be cleaned up to make it harder for these bottom feeders to do mass emailing in the first place.

and

jail?

Times have changed, and the technology wasn't made to be that secure to begin with. Need new technology, like IPV6, etc. It'll happen someday. Slowly strangling the spamming parasites..

Problem is the countries that get on the backbone and don't have laws like that.

What ever happened to that s*it list program, where ISPs were blocking known spammers?

Thanks, Rich
