Since I've moved back to San Diego and opened an account with Time Warner Cable (Roadrunner), my main box is nothing but a spam depository!
I quickly set up a mail server, registered a domain and now use Zone Edit to manage my DNS entries. Sure, it costs me more, but I get no spam at my main address and I don't even bother to use my RR mailbox.
However, I've noticed that my two Yahoo addresses have been getting little or no span since I've been forwarding the messages to the abuse@ addresses. I've become very intimate with ARIN, RIPE, APNIC and LACNIC. It may be a pain to trace every single piece of spam back to the ISP, but, dammit, it's worth it. |
