I don't buy their explanation either - if you look closely at the node from UUNet that the spam was sent out on, you'll see it came from San Diego. The domain name is registered to an address in San Diego. Coincidence ? Hrm. Here are some articles on the fate of those behind this fiasco. http://cgi.pathfinder.com/netly/article/0,2334,14630,00.html http://www.wired.com/news/news/technology/story/15221.html http://www.zdnet.com/intweek/daily/980921b.html You'll notice in the Wired article that one of the people involved admits that the list was for marketing..

I hope the list didn't go too far. ************************************************** Andrea Di Lecce (416) 935-5700 [email protected] Network Operations 1 Mount Pleasant Road, Toronto, M4Y 2Y5 **************************************************
