Why o why are isp's and hosters so ignorant in dealing with such issues and act like they do not care? So, part of the problem is *your* upstream. Why didn't your upstream actively remove the entire abusive netblock? Why didn't your upstream contact other providers with your evidence, and together remove the abusive network from the global routing tables? My hoster did mail, his upstream is EGI, however, EGI does not want to block/filter since it would pollute their routers they say. I asked through my hoster if they would be willing to place a simple UDP filter, blocking all of it. They refuse.
again make it a question of economics. vote with your wallet, vote with your feet. if they won't block, leave.
