you could bet that by closing off this avenue, SPF will force spammers to use other methods that are more easily detected/filtered, and that if you play this cat&mouse game long enough, it will drive the cost of spam so high (or drive the volume benefit so low) that it'll just die out.

I can swim but I believe that the water under the Titanic was quite too cold to stay. Any advice to the people on the NANOG mailing list before the boat goes down?
