UUNet contact for security spambot?

Mon Jan 5 16:44:43 UTC 2004

Some well-intentioned person at UUNet, in an effort to rid the Internet
of worms, viruses, and evildoers, has written a script that sends email
in response to network scans.  Repeatedly.

Mail comes from "secmbox3 at uu.net" with a return path of "eagleeye at uu.net".

We're getting complaints for an origin IP that neither originates on nor
passes through our network.  I'm not sure why UUNet or their robot assumes
that we can help with the problem.

Replies to the scripted mail appear to go to Dave Null.  If a human at
UU.Net could contact me off-list about this, it would be appreciated.
