I could be speaking out of unnameable orifices here but...
Unfortunately there's little we *can* do. They aren't exactly breaking
the law - they're doing something I personally find immoral - but not
illegal. You can attempt to contact their hosting provider to shut them
down?
Mark - I hear your pain. Spam pisses me off too, especially when they
have some sort of connection to OpenSRS (you should see some of the
*literally* hate mail I get because of it).
Anyway, I've forwarded this to our compliance folk (who do read this list,
but I'll bring it to their attention in case they're too busy to pour
through some of the recent traffic here) and I'll see if I can find
anything out for you.
Worst case scenario, create filters - lots of them... only read mail
you're expecting ;) (not too feasible)
