A solution that more appropriately fits the problem is to use feed back the abused subdomains to the hosts. We did that with Yahoo/Geocities/Tripod and they eventually got things cleaned up. It took longer than anyone wanted, but the end result is that most of the abuse stopped. For hosts that are so negligent as to not clean up, blacklist their main domain. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee.
