Good luck. I just got a spam which originated from Cyberpromo RELAYED
through istar.ca. I would think that somebody like IStar would take
serious exception to being dragged into this war, however my many many
complaints to them about their "open to relaying" mailers have all gone
unanswered. I've lodged a complaint about them at www.vix.com/spam, but
didn't hear anything about it from them either.
<soapbox>
As far as I'm concerned IStar are just as culpible (sp?) for spam as
Cyberpromo for allowing unauthorized relaying through their mail servers.
We are playing in a time now folks, where it is technically feasible to
prevent unauthorized mail relaying, so, as far as I'm concerned, any site
which allows the relaying of spam is just as bad as the spammers.
