I rarely post, but that is clearly a problem. The Americans seem to believe in the presumption of guilt and the infallibility of accusation. As an American born and bred I can hardly be accused of bias.
Clearly spam is a serious problem in terms of draining network resources, but organizations like Spamhaus don't even do an investigation.
Even if this were on-topic, don't you think it would a good idea to make at least a cursory attempt to get your facts straight? Spamhaus is located in the UK, I personally know multiple Spamhaus volunteers who spend vast amounts of time resarching their blacklist entries, and they put large dossiers on their web site to document them. ObOperations: Spamhaus publishes a drop list of IP ranges intended for your router that I heartily recommend. It is much smaller than their mail blacklist, chosen to include only network ranges with no socically redeeming value at all. R's, John
