Okay, going to start a flame war with this....
Huh?
Anyone who wants to run an email server on the internet in this day
and age, understands the need for transparency if they want their
email accepted by others.
The flame war didn't happen. You're preaching to the choir, but the
service providers aren't listening, and they don't care.
I have never been successful in extracting customer identifying
information for clear spam senders from any service provider, whether
shady or legit. They just don't disclose this info, typically citing
personal data protection reasons. I've given up asking.
If the customer doesn't identify themselves on their website (which of
course spammers won't do), you basically have to don your private
investigator hat and put together the info puzzle pieces that you can
get, yielding tentative clues but no solid evidence.
Yes, I'm blocking them pretty radically. The spammers without thinking
twice, and their providers (ASNs) after some check that there won't be
too many legit customers affected. Works fine for me but I'd rather have
the spammers put on the pillory so that everyone interested can block
them and spit on them.
Cheers,
Hans-Martin
