It's time to just block rima-tde.net, they don't care about their spam and they won't do anything about the nigerian criminals infesting their networks.
Blocking rima-tde.net, maybe you will be blocking almost all spanish DSL users, including myself. I have my own DSL connection, and SMTP running on my computer. I could spam the entire world without using my provider's smarthost. Please, think twice about this.
as a sidenote, it is *strongly* discouraged to run your own smtp server on a dynamic ip address that you don't exclusively own. i know it's nice to roll your own just for the hack value, but any responsible smtp admin out there should block *any and all* mails coming from known dialup address pools.
if you can't keep your own sender address when using your isp's relay, you should either raise hell with their support, switch providers or ssh-tunnel into another network you have access to and use their smtp (univiersity networks come to mind). if all this is not an option, you are out of luck, but still: don't run your own smtp.
