Are you under any contractural obligation to transit that IP address? The user in question seems to think you are, but you should check that as well; most contracts that I've seen do not mention multihoming specificially, and this could be the perfect loophole for you to use while you give him the 30 days notice or whatever it takes to disconnect him completely.

Lawyers have a funny way of reading contracts. Some read them that anything not spelled out is allowed, whereas others read them that anything not spelled is not allowed. I guess ISPs on NANOG should be aware of this new spam/ip-spoofing method when writing contracts with their clients. -Hank
