Still, my firefox said "File not found". Try this: http://snk.to/f-ctjiqk9t > BTW I've set Followup-To: news.admin.net-abuse.email because that's > where any activity foiling spam is best posted. Just ignore the > kooks and the trolls. That newsgroup is a freakshow - a complete waste of time. Nothing of any merit or consequence in terms of understanding or countering spam happens there. Those of us that _really_ want to discuss spam and all it's dimensions should really be using one or several of these groups: alt.comp.issues.spam alt.comp.mail.misc alt.current-events.net-abuse.spam alt.spam comp.mail.headers comp.mail.misc There once was a some-what useful set of threads about spam happening in alt.spam, but over the past 2 years it has been used by kooks (or a single kook -> "SpamBuster") and (and perhaps someone can explain this) as a clearing house or exchange for stolen credit-card data.
