Maybe you should read all the posts before answering them.

Well, I guess that if this is the way you work with other people, I
won't be able to change that.

Of course our ISP has been ignoring that, it only provides
connectivity, it doesn't have to interfere with our actions. But... do
you mean you contacted our ISP privately? "hiding this problem behind
private email" ? And you didn't bother to contact us?

As far as I know, our gateway (our "flawed spammer vector" as you call
it) is the only freely available one, used by more than 50 people who
may not be able to access usenet news otherwise. If it has been abused
by spammers, well, this is life, and we are taking measures right now
to enhance our anti-spam system.
