yup... if they use their own specialized hw and if oyu looked at
where the spam came from, you'd know if they use their own hw
or if they are using some un-suspecting bozo's machine on the wire
and, guess you're missing the point.. if they use other peoples boxes
to spam from, that uses standard sendmail/postfix/exim, etc...
than the bounces will fill up their que
either way ... i dont care ... the spam gets bounced
