Big ISPs will kick first, ask later. Personally, I'd use a pgp signature, try to register that with your ISP (though that may be difficult as lots of front/help desk bods wouldn't know what pgp signature was if it came up and whacked them in the face with a frozen plaice!) and make sure that people know that if it doesn't have your pgp sig, then it's not from you. > Now, I'm assuming this is straight forging, and that no spammers are actually > using any network resources related to me (since I pay $10/yr for a web/mail > hosting account for haligonian.com and don't run my own servers). Depends on the spammers. Some will hijack your bandwidth. TTFN Paul -- Homer: Donut? Lisa: No, thanks. Do you have any fruit? Homer: This has purple stuff inside. Purple is a fruit.
