Re: ICANN opens up Pandora's Box of new TLDs

already safely ignore anything with a .name, .biz, .info, .tv suffix, to name just the worst. Does this actually work? The vast majority of spam I receive has an origin that doesn't reverse map. Of those messages that have origins (as extracted from the appropriate Received header) that do reverse map, the majority are in com and net.

this is analogous to the gossip that most spam comes from china, asia, nigeria, or whomever we like to be xenophobic or racist about this week. measurement shows the united states to be the largest single source of spam. randy
