What irks me is that Gmail's / MS365's IPs never seem to get blacklisted by Spamhaus for example. Spamcop actually had the courage to list MS365's because they also send tons of spam and ironically enough, everyone is upset at Spamcop because how dare they. Yeah, we should just let these guys get even bigger and spam even more people because surely then, they will care enough to stop the abuse.
I know it's not easy to handle hundreds of millions ( billions ) of e-mail accounts but they should suffer the same consequences as everyone else if they can't keep abusers in check. Just my 2 cents.

I also get a great deal of B2B spam from Google. While I am no happier about it than you are, I would not assume it's because they don't care. I get the spsm to the same ill chosen addresses* over and over so I assume someone is selling spamming kits with a Gmail signup and a list of victims. Would be nice to figure out who and where they are. R's, John * - I mean, business development spam to the head of an anti-spam organization with a budget you need a magnifying glass to see? Really? Yup. _______________________________________________ mailop mailing list mailop@mailop.org https://list.mailop.org/listinfo/mailop
