"Third and finally, if you are really not a spammer, or you are truly
reformed, de-listing is relatively easy. You donate US$50 to a charity or trust approved by, and not connected with, SORBS for each spam received relating to the listing (This is known and refered to as the SORBS 'fine'). "
That doesn't make a lot of sense. It's an interesting answer to the BotNet spamming problem, but not really a solution, IMHO.
It's just cynicism at it's best. I like people who can be smartasses without being asses, but this is ridiculous if they want to be a serious service, and cute if they are looking to make jokes.
... and perfect if they want to become sentimental favourites with the nanas/nanae crowd/mob, which is what they're shooting for imo. how about they buy me a lollipop if i'm a service provider who just booted a spam source and needs ip space delisted? -p --- paul galynin
