If these actually exist, my spamassassin has been delivering to /dev/null for quite some time now. My impression is they largely died off, possibly thanks to adoption of SPF. Now it is much easier and cheaper to send spam from botnets of perfectly legitimate pwn3d peecees. Or to anonymously register a perfectly valid domain (e.g. tnеtсоnsulting.net -- there's 3 "language-specific script" chars in there), add all the DMARC embellishments, and send perfectly compliant spam as gtaylor from there. For bonus points, pay with stolen credit card number and have your spam campaign all done by the time visa fraud department calls you domain registar. -- Dimitri Maziuk Programmer/sysadmin BioMagResBank, UW-Madison -- http://www.bmrb.wisc.edu
