Hi Douglas,
On 04 December 2000 at 18:10:46 -0600 (which was 00:10 where I
live) Douglas Hinds wrote and made these points:

I don't speak the language myself but your explanation of these terms
reveals that, were they translated to English, the words I have
censored above would almost certainly be considered "bad".
Douglas, you've been a member here long enough to know that it is
against the list rules to use profanity. 'Nuff said?

As for the topic, I agree with you entirely that spammers do not use
standard ISP mail routing to spread their trash and any ISP that
limits recipients for standard account subscribers is ill-advised if
not lying. The truth is normally that the ISP in question only has
limited bandwidth and has to pay for the traffic passing out of their
system. The real reasons are financial and the nonsense about spammers
is just a smoke screen for the fact that they are short-changing their
customers.
Spam nearly always emanates from open relays, and rarely comes from
simple end-user accounts.
