Hi, A friend of mine has just received about 200 spam mails (why 200, beats me), Anyway, I have found out from the headers, who received what and who was the initial point of injection, I want to contact the point of injection and warn that person that their box is being used for an open relay, without contacting their isp (and getting them in trouble). The problem is looking at their IP, it seems to be a blueyonder broadband account, I wish to somehow contact the person on that address and advise them of this, I have their hostname and IP address. I tried to telnet to port 25 on that IP, yet it never received a reply, which would seem that their smtp sever isn't open, yet they did send the mail through their open rely sever. Email headers: Received: from mail.pcc.edu.cn ([211.65.116.10]) by mc7-f9.law1.hotmail.com with Microsoft SMTPSVC(5.0.2195.5600); Tue, 21 Jan 2003 10:41:13 -0800 Received: from smtp0542.mail.yahoo.com (pc-80-193-4-51-nm.blueyonder.co.uk [80.193.4.51])(authenticated bits=0)by mail.pcc.edu.cn (8.12.3/8.12.3) with ESMTP id h0LItEL9003808for <tuesday350@hotmail.com>; Wed, 22 Jan 2003 02:55:23 +0800 Spammer: smtp0542.mail.yahoo.com OpenRelay Server: pc-80-193-4-51-nm.blueyonder.co.uk [80.193.4.51] Any advise is greaty received.
