Yo Robert!
How about moving this discussion to a more appropriate list? Nanog
is not the place to discuss spam and we are re-inventing the wheel,
badly, on nanog.
Half the spam I get is from throw away AOL, netzero, earthlink, etc.
accounts. Spend $10 for a new ISP account, sent 10,000 emails with
MY return address which is valid and on whitelists. Do it on a long
weekend and get 30k out before you get stopped.
If the spammers can not run their own name servers then they will just
use someone elses. Last I checked there where over 6,000 ISPs in the
country. Cancel them one place and they just go to another.
