after getting about 20 spam/day to linux-audio* from a single taiwanese domain, i filed a complaint with their postmaster and abuse addresses.
i thought i'd share this laugh with you:

the mail has been coming in from bogus addresses of the form [EMAIL PROTECTED] below i have included the headers of one spam message for your reference.=
since it is putting a significant load on our servers and consumes a lot =
of work time, i urgently request that you stop this practice immediately.=
sincerely,
