Of course. I just meant, you could be proactive and block those obvious spam magnets aswell, in ADDITION to confirmed crappy-gTLD-spammers.
Honestly, in the beginning I felt this ICANN gTLD program being a very cool thing, with custom gTLDs and such. On paper it sounded so good and so cool. But in reality, these TLDs just attract more spammers than legit users, and the registrars (that "own" the gTLDs) don't care about spam. I have tried to abuse report a lot of spam to the registrars but they are refusing to de-register the names. They just say that I should turn to the hoster where the domain is actually hosted. Basically, they will only carry out an action on a registred TLD (under a gTLD) if a court compels them to do it. They see it as a ownership, like owning a plot of land that they can't revoke for anything else than non-payment basically. So sad. ICANN should have been required some enforcement of spam fighting before approving a gTLD operator, and also monitor so a gTLD operator actually takes action against spam. -----Ursprungligt meddelande----- Från: Jaroslaw Rafa via mailop <mailop@mailop.org> Skickat: den 3 november 2024 13:03 Till: mailop@mailop.org Ämne: Re: [mailop] Gmail not accepting the spam they sent themselves Dnia 3.11.2024 o godz. 09:52:37 Sebastian Nielsen via mailop pisze: > > Use that site above to find all the "custom" gTLDs and then block the ones > that sound "too spammy". I think it's better to block those you are actually getting spam from, not just the ones that "sound spammy". -- Regards, Jaroslaw Rafa r...@rafa.eu.org -- "In a million years, when kids go to school, they're gonna know: once there was a Hushpuppy, and she lived with her daddy in the Bathtub." _______________________________________________ mailop mailing list mailop@mailop.org https://list.mailop.org/listinfo/mailop _______________________________________________ mailop mailing list mailop@mailop.org https://list.mailop.org/listinfo/mailop
