Why does this have to be spammers call? There are loads of legit uses for bulk e-mail.
A member of my family runs an Internet advertising company, which specializes in for instance opt-in bulk mailing. For example, small company, which hosts two servers and has 4 employees need to reach 20.000 customers with news about their products. Clearly, they don't have the capacity or expertise to arrange the bulk mail themselves. they hire another company to do that for them. -Sietse From: Justin Mason Sent: Tue 12-Dec-06 18:22 To: Jean-Paul Natola Cc: Giampaolo Tomassoni; users@spamassassin.apache.org Subject: Re: This seen on Dice Jean-Paul Natola writes: > From: Philip Prindeville [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > > Any takers? ;-) > > > > http://seeker.dice.com/seeker.epl?rel_code=1102&op=5&type=14&docke > y=xml/7/a/[EMAIL PROTECTED]&bb=0&source=15 > > Aaaah!

I doubt it -- I've seen quite a few postings advertised in the past (a couple of years ago, elance.com had loads -- search for "bulk mail" as the obfuscatory keyword, or "bulletproof hosting"). If anyone has the time, it might be worth seeing if it's possible to get job boards to take down spammer listings... --j.
