Paul,

I suspect rather than spam, this sender has a D.O.S. worm on his system that
is shotgunning replies to every message in his inbox.  Since there is no
message (the ORACLE-L trailer is automatically added by fatcity), my guess
is that he doesn't even know his machine is doing this.  Let's give his
system admin's a chance to clean up his machine before we resort to
blacklisting his domain.

The other option is that he set his system into v*a*c*a*t*i*o*n mode and
forgot to supply a message to be sent.  In which case we can ask Bruce to
put him in NOMAIL mode.  And, let his sa's flog him when he gets home.

Hi.

I don't expect anything to happen in response to this from the sender's
account until noon tomorrow.
But I did send a blanket request to the site and their ISP.
This ought to get someone's attention.

In the meantime, set up a filter in your mail client.

Part-time vigilante,

Paul
