Far too much effort for your average spammer. Why not just relay through one of the many open servers? That's a few more common cause of IP addresses shifting; the real source IP changes, too, depending on whether the spammer got ToSed from their ISP. Setting up an actual ISP is decidedly non-trivial, though, since IP address allocations are getting harder to come by. The connectivity would also be rather expensive. Regards, Ben A L Jemmett.
