why in the world do people insist on spamming. I have been configuring rbl, dcc , razor and spamassassin all the live long day. I wish there was a way to recoup financial losses from spammers. my servers have been hit consistently with a heavy load of spam. now i have to upgrade the ram in the box and setup some kind of hardware filtering on smtp gateway. surely windows boxes get just as hard.

I'm with you man.. I had to set up .htaccess rules because the redirect spammers were forcing full page loads so often. I have blacklisted url and word rules on my blog, spamassassin set up so I can train the bayesian filter, etc. etc.. etc...

I wonder how many sys-admins would like to quietly hunt down and do painful things to spammers?
