Now this is interesting to me, because proxad has been at least as big a pain in my side as far as drones and SPAM sources. Right behind Comcast in no1 and RoadRunner in no2, but I'd never heard of them until they started showing up on my lists a while back...maybe a year or so ago. Anyone else seeing the same amount of problems with these guys? It's just interesting to me that whoever they are, as far as volume of problems from *my* perspective they're as bad as comcast and rr.... -- "Genius might be described as a supreme capacity for getting its possessors into trouble of all kinds." -- Samuel Butler

Yes. My current list shows 5032 distinct hosts emitting spam from within their network, and that's as measured from a very small test server -- I would imagine that large production servers are seeing a lot more. This places them behind Comcast, Verizon and a couple of others, but still solidly in the top ten. Mitigation: I recommend rejecting all mail traffic from hosts whose names match these patterns: *.adsl.proxad.net *.dial.proxad.net *.fbx.proxad.net ---Rsk
