Did you receive any response from [log in to unmask] regarding your complaint? I
haven't seen a notice about this spam or aol's response to the spammer on
SPAM-L. Do you know for a fact that "the spammer is now account-less?" Any
comments concerning the time discrepancies in the spam's Received header
fields?
How does your "LISTSERV program" catch spam "before it hits the list?" You
obviously don't block aol's domain from posting to the List. How does it
programmatically prevent spam by content?
Thanks,
