I'm not saying /that/ person is, I'll let someone else make a definitive accusation, but it's something that you have to check for before making any spam reports. Been there, done that before. These days, I rarely ever bother reporting spam. Chances are that thousands of others have seen the spam, several will have reported it, and various mail services' automatic spam detectors found it and dealt with it (such as informing the various block lists that program various different anti-spam systems). Any ISP ought to be in a very good position to identify spam with a much higher degree of certainty than any user. They'll be bombarded with it, lots of identical messages (99% that they'll be spam), and to lots of addresses that don't really exist on their network (dictionary attacks, which will be a 100% certainty of being spam). Service providers may well get thousands of spams a minute, don't think that they don't do something to minimise it. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -r 2.6.27.25-78.2.56.fc9.i686 Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
