First, they steal the bandwidth, then they forge headers to innocent bystanders, and now, they're using our own anti-spam technology against us! I.e., they redirect all messages to a spam filtering network, basically debilitating it's efficacy... Sound familiar? Perhaps ORDB.org, Razo, et al should communicate better and identify and sever all connections to spammers and their ISPs? But, I'd like to see the owner of the info-cvs-admin and bug-cvs-admin mailing lists ACTUALLY TAKE SOME RESPONSIBILITY in filtering out the SPAM. Personally, I'd wouldn't mind a 24 hour blackout once a year in exchange for not being subjected to 30 spam messages a day from these two mailing lists. In fact, I'm more concerned about users who have to pay time and money and only have 56 Kbps service, because they've already paid for the spam they've had to filter out at their end!
