: Be ethical. Forward all your spams automatically to postmaster@agis.net
: with a polite complaint. They are after all the people responsible for
: connecting spamford to the net.
And after 30 or so forwards, you will be blacklisted and mail from your
address is refused. So then, running Linux, you pick another email address
(say alan001) and mail from there. Then alan002....then alan003... until
they get so fed up they block your whole domain.
Yes, they do this :-( I've been blacklisted at work, so now my main router
has a couple of rules labelled "Sod Cyberpromo and Quantcom shitheads" :-)
PS: I hope gatewaying a few mail lists to local "this machine only" groups
is OK? Spuddy if a free email/usenet service I run, and has a number
of subscribers who would all read the same lists, so high volume ones I
gateway to a localnet.mail.* newsgroup. Spuddy get's it's mail via UUCP and
modem, so this action saves me a lot of expense! And ugh, I can't block
cyberpromo on Spuddy because it's UUCP. Shit, over the weekend, 10% of all
email received was bounced spam to old invalid addresses. Aagghh!!!
