Are you sure is was your ISP rather than your own mail action? To avoid confusion, maybe it would be valuable to just disable your mail actions for a while so you can clearly see what is being done by your ISP. >I know Chris disagrees but I feel only proper education is going to >reduce significantly these spammers. But what does "proper education" mean? We old farts (and that includes me) may rail against the constant downward slide in our society's values, but people have been doing that for hundreds of years. Do you expect the public education system to work a miracle on kids who's parents don't model good values for them? My wife teaches advanced placement US History in a high school in an upper middle class mostly white ghetto, so these kids are in many ways the cream of the crop- the ones trying to get into Harvard, Stanford, etc., and many of these kids will cheat on exams and homework if they can get away with it. Eliminating spamming, cheating, stealing, etc. involves changing the entire value system of a society. I don't know how that can be done, but I think it will require something beyond "proper education," whatever that means. All societies have always had people who exhibit anti-social behavior, and no society has fixed it.
