One other thing to look at: how friendly is the registrar to spammers? Some registrars (tucows, joker, srs, neulevel and quite a few others) just don't care about spam and don't yank a domain whatever the evidence. Others are quite quick to yank a domain when the contact information is invalid. GoDaddy has quite a good track record there. Just take your latest batch of spam and look where the domains are registered. If you've got time, folks on news.admin.net-abuse.email may be inclined to discuss registrars (just be sure to ignore the trolls that are certain to transform every thread into a stupid name-calling dick war.) greetings - -- vbi - -- pub 1024D/92082481 2002-02-22 Adrian von Bidder <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Key fingerprint = EFE3 96F4 18F5 8D65 8494 28FC 1438 5168 9208 2481 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (GNU/Linux) Comment: get my key from http://fortytwo.ch/gpg/92082481 iKcEARECAGcFAkCSGHhgGmh0dHA6Ly9mb3J0eXR3by5jaC9sZWdhbC9ncGcvZW1h aWwuMjAwMjA4MjI/dmVyc2lvbj0xLjUmbWQ1c3VtPTVkZmY4NjhkMTE4NDMyNzYw NzFiMjVlYjcwMDZkYTNlAAoJECqqZti935l6XD8AmgPiLNX6uBDFvYxLzqbYQjSr mSIWAJ9WOz/Oayk45KtWTU6mZlLKtL+DXg== =MU+T -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
