I'd like to make this point again: this subject is off topic, as I have
mentioned in my original post, and further discussion about it here does
not help the cause, OR the list. the facts are:
these people are sending unsolicited spam
they are collecting passwords of people around the country
they have full access to those people's accounts and Email, not only mail
headers but the text itself if they want. I'm worried about the headers
though - I send mail to a list like linux-il and suddenly my name is on 15
more spammers' lists.
this has to stop, and the way to stop it is to both bounce it to necs,
mailpush and netvision, and ofcourse never use those extreamly dangerous
services.
With all that said, this has been the last post about this to the list,
it's not anyone's job here as part of linux-il to manage this, you should
take care of those announcements personally.
