You don't believe they are in a conspiracy to SPAM everyone?
All email addresses they give are fraudulent, and the few
that are not, the complaint emails are not only never replied
to but they never do anything about the abusive domains and
email accounts.

Thanks, I've started filtering IP address prefixes.  I also
signed up for SpamCop http://spamcop.net/anonsignup.shtml and
will start to use them.

That's true.

domains.

That's hyperbolic. I like reading about conspiracy theories
and the rest
but in 99% of all cases, they are just nice stories and
nothing more.


> They are a total waste of time and space.

Check http://www.apnic.net/info/faq/abuse/index.html for
information on
abuse.

If you feel like (though it's strongly recommended not to do
something
like that), you can ban incoming traffic to ports 25,587 from
the APNIC IP
range on your mail server(*):

61.0.0.0 - 61.255.255.255
202.0.0.0 - 203.255.255.255
210.0.0.0 - 211.255.255.255
218.0.0.0 - 221.255.255.255
169.208.0.0 - 169.223.255.255


I repeat: It's *not* recommended.


(*) That is possible in cases you own your own domain and the
mail
processing takes place in your own machine. I don't think
that it will
work in cases where the ISP mail server forwards traffic to
the local mail
server.


Good luck.
