1. This is not a question, but a statement, and quite a stupid one if I may. Do 
you really expect a serious answer? How are those related?
 
2. Please clarify this question.

Subject: Re: Israeli ISP and Blacklisting


Why ISP will spend time to block spammers, when they spend their time to 
block/shape/inspect p2p, voip and other protocols. After all this saves much 
more money. 

I would like to ask a more general question. If spammers from abroad use 
Israeli  ISP, it means that their systems were already compromised. How ISP see 
such a thing?

        I cannot discuss this further when you refuse to give ANY factual data. 
You publicy trash people (the abuse@ and all the other people behind that ISP) 
with quite a harsh words, and refuse to back it up with facts.
        You, yet again, dismiss my attempts to help you, saying it's won't help 
(???). It seems you don't really want to be helped, but just taking advantage 
of the free and cheap shot.
        
        I will be glad if you can also forward these complaints you say that 
have been ignored by the abuse@ - I'm also interested to know why they were 
ignored.
        If you have sensetive information you don't want posted on this list - 
you can always mail it to me off-list.
        
        I must emphasize this - almost 24 hours after the original flametory 
post, I still didn't get ANYTHING to work with.

               Let me get this straight - You claim you already know of a 
specific user that is abusing you over and over. You complain that this ISP is 
not willing to help. I'm offering to help you, and I'm in the position to do so.
               You refuse with the lame excuse I (or the company I work for) 
might sue you? COME ON. Sounds quite evasive to me. If you really care and want 
something to be done, you can use my help - If you want to continue with this 
trolling, please, stop wasting my time.
        
        
        
        
        This doesn't become you, Imri.
        
        I will send the LIST OF USERS that are spamming me to the abuse 
address. If hypothetically, you are the ISP discussed, you should be able to 
help me then.
        
        Just give me some time to write a python script to download my spam 
folders and sort through the headers to find them.
        
        Besides, what good does it do to me that you're going to close the 
users' account this one singular time? I'm talking about years of continued 
abuse by many of your users. It's not going to be a one-off, and if mail to 
abuse doesn't seem to help, this one-off isn't going to do much of a difference 
anyway.
        
        So if I automate my scripts to the level that I can trust them to run 
unattended, I might be able to make it run on a regular basis and send 
automated messages to abuse, complete with headers and PGP signed, and then 
create a graph showing exactly how effective the abuse complaints are (i.e. how 
many messages I got after the first complaint and for how long). It might be an 
interesting experiment. I have however just recently relocated and am still 
pretty busy in a new role, location, country and continent so it will take some 
time.
        
        If it works out I might even do it for all Israeli ISPs and track it on 
a web page... Hmm...
