Regarding my previous message about the aol/prodigy mailer-daemons,
perhaps it would be more proactive to do the following:
1. Take the mailer-daemon bounces and forward them to
both the webmaster & postmaster at aol...along with
a request-to-block-further-mailings at the beginning
of the message.
2. Ditto the above to other appropriate "management" e-mail
addresses at aol.
3. Eliminate some kind of bounce-back loop for the above
so I won't get these bounced back again...off to /dev/null ?
Would this possibly help them to "get the message"...and take
more immediate action on their end?
Thanks.

Firstly, I'd raise it with the FBI CCS seeking their opinion (if they're
interested in the case).
Then I'd raise the issue directly with the postmaster ofthe domains
where the offenders hide (or pretend to hide) in. It's not uncommon for
them to want to close down offenders so that their own subscribers don't
receive any trouble from the sods and the corporate image doesn't get
tarnished.
After that, then look at the above. Thei idea is to let them know what
is happening and what you are about to do so that they are part of the
solution, rather than seeing your solution as a problem in it's own
right.
Mike.
