Many of the forged subscriptions appear to come dial-access.att.net.
Since the header contains the IP and possibly port address in the
name, the time and such, surely att.net gods can locate who the
subscriber is. Perhaps a collective action will produce a response
and even action?
I have had some smtp host hijacking by people using anon mailers via
UU.Net and ATT.Net and I got zero response from them despite
documenting the use of our smtp server with logs etc from their
ports. (I caught on to it after nearly 300,000 UCE had been delivered
to AOL and Compuserve subscribers from my site. I killed another
200,000 in queue and have since built a filter to throw these out.
Smaller ISPs were more response in locating the culprits and closing
their accounts).
As it began, now I am getting about one of these subscriptions every
5 minutes or so, starting about 5 p m est. May be a major offensive
planned for the weekend?
