This only happens because as demonstrated here many are too scared
to block the bigger mail senders/providers - and since these gutless
so and so's publicly admit it, the big boys know it, so have little
reason to be motivated to "clean up their act".
I would never block an entire server/provider, no matter big or small,
unless the server/provider sends spam *only* and not any legitimate
emails.
If there are even few legitimate emails from this IP address, I would
never
block it. Because email is all about communications, and I don't want
to
sacrifice actual communications in order to fight spam aggresively.
I don't care about providers, I do care about end users. Someone who
wants
to send an email and someone who wants to receive it. Their ability to
send
and receive emails should NOT be harmed in any way because I want to
fight
spam. Yes, obviously I do want to fight spam, but NEVER at the cost of
someone losing actual email.
psssst NEWSFLASH the blocking is to the advantage of end users
nobody wakes up one morning and says who are we gonna blacklist today
for no reason, if you are not doing your best to stop the trash getting
to your users, you are not doing your job, or, you just DGAF about them
We've done this since the 90's and nobodys said " oh how dare you" well,
nobody but the spammers - yes I've had 2 in my lifetime who had the
nerve to call us, admit they were spamming and demand we unblock
them... I dunno, must have had a bad batch of drugs I guess.
and in case you still aint grasped it, I block these f'wits for the
benefit of and to protect users, many of whom are not geeks and in their
80s and wouldnt know how to tell a phishing email.
you run your spam infested network the way you want, and i'll run mine
the way I want.
