are you sure it was 62.150.189?  That makes little  sense.  62.0.0.0 is a 
European IP address admined by RIPE.

First, complain to qwest (this is a waste of time, but a necessary step).  
Then, blacklist the right IP range this time (nothing against you but all 
the reports I can turn up are in the 63.150.189.0/24 range so I think you 
made a mistake previously)

When Qwurst moves the spammers to a new IP block you can either follow the 
move or simply add Qwest to your blacklist.  63.144.0.0 - 63.151.255.255 
for a start with a note about ums01 spam.

I hate to say it, but your post is a perfect advertisement for the SPEWS 
"daisy cutter" methods of blacklisting every possible IP address.

Post your spam message to news.admin.net-abuse.sightings including all the 
headers.  You can block out out any personal info in the headers, but doin'
t delete anything.

looks like they used to be at 209.120.219.69 which is Data Delivery Direct.
   Even sounds like a spammer.
