No that isn't what he said. He said: If they have a domain that they are hosting here.
As in, he is hosting the 'throwaway' domain of a spammer, and the spam is being generated by a 3rd party pointing to the throwaway domain. This isn't a case of fraudulent registration, they are hosting the domain for the spammer's site. Unless he didn't mean what he wrote.

THAT is what he is bringing up. You nor I (usually) have 100% control over domain registration and info that goes into them. Why would that be an SBL target? I can see the IP block of MCI, or MCI overall if abuse@ didn't do their job... ************* Dave Heritage dave at onx dot cc ************* -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jason @ AreaTech Sent: Wednesday, September 01, 2004 2:10 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [IMail Forum] Blacklisted by SBL Actually, you do. If you are hosting a spammer's site, and they use another method to transmit spam, YOU (as seen) can/will get blacklisted. It's that simple. It's like saying you are harboring terrorist training camps, but they don't launch attacks from your soil, they walk to another country and do it. You are still going to be a target. Sorry for all of the Terrorist references. :) Jason ----- Original Message ----- From: "i360, Inc" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, September 01, 2004 1:42 PM Subject: Re: [IMail Forum] Blacklisted by SBL > But that's my point. > > We do not give a safe haven as you describe it. > We do not tolerate it but we do not control it. > > If they have a domain that they are hosting here, spam somewhere else and > use one of their accounts here as admin contact for the domain we have no > clue that they do and we cant stop them from doing so. > > If we terminate them as customers it will not change anything, the record is > still the same email address unless they change it and we can't control that > part. > > I find that unreasonable that we are being held responsible for something > out of our control without any warning even. > > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Jason @ AreaTech" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Sent: Wednesday, September 01, 2004 12:46 PM > Subject: Re: [IMail Forum] Blacklisted by SBL > > > >I guess the moral of the story is that if you give safe haven to terrorists > > (spammers), you run the risk of being blacklisted.
