Ah, I knew this was coming. For the record: Digex.net does not do any sort of web hosting. Digex.com does not do any sort of leased line sales. They're vastly different companies these days. You did, however, send your complaint to the correct address (digex.com). Folks, please follow Kai's example, and let [email protected] (and your digex.com salesperson, if you have one) know exactly what you think of this. I'm sure I'm going to hear a lot about this over the next few days, and I'm hoping that everybody realizes that the digex.net/icix.net folks have nothing to do with this whatsoever. I have no idea if digex.com knew what they were getting into with this. I hope they did not. Please, though, don't harrass/mailbomb us IBI/digex.net folks. We're innocent. I swear. And Kai, I'm sorry our sales force let you down. I'm more ashamed to admit you're not the only one. -Dave On 9/4/2001 at 15:38:30 -0400, Kai Schlichting said: > > Nothing like the smell of spam in the morning - coming to you through the > "benevolent" acts of Akamai and Digex - sent to POC handles blatantly stolen > from ARIN's whois database. > > Yo, Digex: this just reminds me how much your "sales team" sucked the last > time around, when there was a DS3 contract up for grabs on an RFP. > This spam certainly cuts you out of any future consideration for a while: > You'll find yourself in good company with Savvis, I am sure. > > Sep 4 11:4x:xx host sendmail[14500]: LAA14500: from=<[email protected]>, size=10198, class=0, pri=40198, nrcpts=1, msgid=<[email protected]>, bodytype=8BITMIME, proto=ESMTP, relay=shiner.innovyx.com [63.143.186.194] (may be forged) > Sep 4 11:4x:xx host sendmail[14500]: LAA14500: to=<[email protected]>, delay=00:00:00, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=local, stat=Sent > > > > [censored] > > Received-Date: Tue, 4 Sep 2001 11:4x:xx -0400 (EDT) > > Received: from shiner.innovyx.com (shiner.innovyx.com [63.143.186.194] (may be forged)) > > by [censored].com (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id LAA14500 > > for <[email protected]>; Tue, 4 Sep 2001 11:4x:xx -0400 (EDT) > > Received: by shiner.innovyx.com (PowerMTA(TM) v1.0); Tue, 4 Sep 2001 08:4x:xx -0700 (envelope-from <[email protected]>) > > Date: Tue, 4 Sep 2001 08:41 -0700 > > From: digexakamai <digexakamai-[censored]@m2.innovyx.com> > > Reply-to: digexakamai <digexakamai-[censored]@m2.innovyx.com> > > Subject: You're Invited > > To: [email protected] > > MIME-Version: 1.0 > > Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary="-------=_8418644195" > > > We're sending you this invitation because we received your e-mail > > address from one of our marketing partners.
