My ISP is stickler for not been labeled as friendly to spam. Do I get

good account and about 300 pieces in my throw away account.
Your ISP not allowing you to send spam is in no way related to the amount
of spam you receive (except that it may reduce spam you might have
received from other members of your ISP).
I wish there was a signal you could push that would send a signal to the
originating server that would literally either wipe the drive out so it
would not even be able to be reformatted. or would blow the equipment
completely up.
That's simply ridiculous.
I didn't say it was possible or even practical. I'd just like to see
some severe consequences for people considering creating spam or even
gathering list to feed to spammer. Its bad enough I have to put up with
legitimate advertising. But when I get junk I don't want under any
circumstances it make you want to punch their lights out.
When I think of all the resources wasted carrying and storing and
delivering their crap, driving costs up for everyone, I get pretty
peeved myself. But in the ordinary course of life, I mostly don't see it
because it either gets filtered by my ISP or it gets filtered by the JMC
in SeaMonkey. I have it set to delete Junk messages after seven days,
and that folder contains 43 messages at the moment -- about six a day
from seven different accounts. No big deal with a broadband connection.
I seem to remember reading about some hacker getting serious prison time
recently; those are the people who really should be punished. That
stuff, and malware and 419 scams, that's what really should be crushed.
Maybe they should spend 20 years reinstalling software after HDD
reformats...
