Agis - Still Spam Central

>From Harris-Marketing's Home page: In our efforts to make commercial email a viable alternative to offline advertising and more socially acceptable, we've taken pains to design and implement our own system, which does not require that each advertiser download and implement the removes on an individual basis, but is a resident feature within the Savoynet servers that prevents the sending of any email to your email address once it has been added to the filter... Any and all UCE (unsolicited commercial email) will be routed through the Harris Marketing Inc/Savoynet.com filtration system. >From Agis's AUP: Customers may not send unsolicited bulk mail messages ("junk mail" or "spam") to any person who does not wish to receive it. If a recipient asks to stop receiving email the customer must not send that person any further email. >From Agis's AUP Action Page: Harris Marketing aka Savoynet - 11/11/97 - Warning Also, 'Investigation numbers': ST-1007, ST-1011, ST-1014, ST-1015, ST-1016, and ST-1021 are all on this one customer of Agis. So my question is, what does it take for Agis to Implement it's AUP? It seems to me that the AUP was more of a PR move rather than an actual policy, and the proof of that is on Agis's on web site.

ns4.internic.net was returning false aa nxdomain
by Marc Slemko 18 Nov '97

18 Nov '97

ns4.internic.net aka. j.gtld-servers.internic.net was just returning false authoritative nxdomain answers for any .com domain that I tried. While it isn't a .com nameserver, that IP address is floating around and my nameserver still asked it and listened when it gave a nxdomain: $ORIGIN HYPERREAL.com. ;taz 287 IN SOA A.ROOT-SERVERS.NET. hostmaster.INTERNIC.NET. ( ; 1997111700 1800 900 604800 86400 );com.;NXDOMAIN ;-$ ;Cr=auth [198.41.0.21] yes, yes, I am still using 4.9.6 but I'm not ready to upgrade to 8.x yet. In any case, it is still bogus to return authoritative nxdomain. Now (10 minutes later), ns4.internic.net is properly reporting: ; <<>> DiG 2.2 <<>> worldgate.com ns @198.41.0.21 ; (1 server found) ;; res options: init recurs defnam dnsrch ;; got answer: ;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: NOERROR, id: 10 ;; flags: qr aa rd; Ques: 1, Ans: 0, Auth: 1, Addit: 0 ;; QUESTIONS: ;; worldgate.com, type = NS, class = IN ;; AUTHORITY RECORDS: com. 86400 SOA A.ROOT-SERVERS.NET. hostmaster.INTERNIC.NET.

Anyone know what is going on there and if it is resolved or just gone for a while again?
