SV: how'd we get spammed
From: "Niklas Wennerstrand" ####@####.#### Date: 6 Jan 2001 13:17:46 -0000 Message-Id: <000101c077e4$4a3f86e0$fa7740d5@telia.com> I believe the listowner will delete any further emails from the mentioned spammer. My first idea was to write him an angry mail (and hoping he would drown in similar emails) but then he would get hold of my email and that would probably fit him nicely so I guess that the listowner have to filter out future emails from this immature German idiot.

Spammers don't usually send from a valid address, because if they did it would be possible for us to filter them out (not to mention the abuse they would receive). I believe his real details (from whois ####@####.#### are probably: person: Schropp Roland address: Ritzmais 10 address: 94253 Bischofsmais address: DE e-mail: ####@####.#### The SPAM was sent from a t-online dialin account via gate.ots-ag.de, which is probably an open relay. I have notified t-online; hopefully they will terminate his account (though I doubt that will deter him, it should at least inconvenience him a little). On a side note, I actually get quite a lot of spam (at least two messages a week) sent to the old GNUPIC mailing list address, but because such messages don't get automatically forwarded to the new list I just ignore them. Ok, so I should really report them to the relevant ISPs, but I'd rather not waste any more time than necessary on them when the worst I can actually do is mildly inconvenience them by getting them kicked from their ISP. -- ------- Alex Holden ------- http://www.linuxhacker.org/ http://www.robogeeks.org/ | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
