Hi Rog. Me again!! :-)) You obviously haven't figured out yet that your in the wrong discussion forum for the pro-SPAMmer opinion. Everyone else on this list is anti-SPAMmer!!
As I said before: Your either a part of the problem or a part of the solution. Which are you Rog?

Get a grip on it... Sheesh... Sounds like you are the one with a problem listening to other opinions.... And by the way.. If you did send spam through our system it would immediately get referred to the attorney generals office for prosecution. We have a zero tolerance policy towards spamming. I simply pointed out the hypocracy of sending spam through someones system to prevent spam. If one were to take that a step further and presume spamming through somebody elses server is theft of services orbz stole service from thousands of isp's daily, it wasn't an opt in test. This is a fact.. Not something debatable. Never said it was good bad or indifferent... Just a fact. And to add to that they KNEW their test could damage some systems... That is irresponsible. If they had dropped that test they would still be viable today. If they threw in some oddball test that threw my 6.0 imail into a loop does that mean that I now must pay to upgrade to 7.0 so that they can send out random unrequested tests and not lock me up because ipswitch won't come out with any more fixes for 6.0. What they should have done when they had momentum going was to move towards an opt-in testing model. Now their tests will be so worthless that they will be unsuable for any public isp. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Todd Holt Sent: Monday, March 25, 2002 6:41 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [IMail Forum] ORBZ shut down To make sure that no one on this list gets accused of SPAMming, I suggest that none of us communicate directly with Roger, because it may be considered illegal entry into his system!! In that vain, I'll just use the list to tell him how short-sided and small-minded he is. And Roger could use a good SPAM attack to wake him up!! I would think that most admins would welcome a dozen SPAM messages relayed through their server to test if they are an open relay, than a 100,000 messages relayed through their server to find out for sure that they are an open relay!! The ORBZ (and other SPAM tests) are standardized messages sent to mail servers of all kinds. If a server cannot handle a specific kind of message (a correctly formed message, at that), then that server should be patched. The bottom line: Your either a part of the problem, or a part of the solution. Roger, you need to decide which you want to be. And quite frankly, if your the problem, then I don't need you on this list anymore! Todd Please visit http://www.ipswitch.com/support/mailing-lists.html to be removed from this list.
