I was pessimistic; it seems that a BitBounce employee might read this message.

So, BitBounce, if you’re reading this:

1. Please drop aphiso...@gmail.com from your service before they do more harm 
to your reputation — there are thousands of subscribers to this mailing list — 
and until they unsubscribe from all their mailing lists.

2. Please make a donation of $2000 to the Django Software Foundation ($1000 if 
you’re cheap) to offset the trouble you’ve caused up to this point: 
https://www.djangoproject.com/fundraising/.You’re the ones who started 
suggesting money was an appropriate compensation for unsolicited email after 
all :-) and you sent quite a lot to us :-(

Looking forwards to a prompt resolution,
