FWIW, we are all autobouncing mail from this guy to "fraud@uu.net" with
the ticket number we were given. We've called uu.net a few times about
this and been promised that the account would be cancelled, but it's been
a few weeks now, and the guy still seems to be active. He was vulnerable
to "teardrop" at one point, but he/she seems to have fixed that...
If anyone would like to jump on the ticket number we are using to
complain about this chronic spammer, it is:
(UU653810)
Thanks,
Charles Sprickman
