Your user on 65.19.17.201 - a dialup user, probably running an infected Windows box, sent spam to the complainant, who figured out who to complain to, explained in great detail (and in English) that well, it shouldn't have happened if you'd had any clue whatsoever, and had blocked outbound port 25 connections from your own users (or at the very least those users of yours who are listed in DNSBLs for spamming or relaying!) and you think he's being /arrogant/? Christ, I'd say he's being helpful. Get over yourself and /fix your own network/. Deal with the frigging complaint, and STFU. I already waste /way/ too much time dealing with equally stupid and/or lazy network/mail admins who won't frigging fix their own networks, and doesn't blame the complainant one frigging bit. Currently, I'm dealing with the backscatter bounces from three concurrent joe jobs, sent by such laughably broken spamware that I'm /amazed/ any of it was accepted in the first place, much less accepted and /then backscattered to me, the victim/ because of still more misconfigured/idiotic antivirus stupidity. Sheesh. Get over /yourself/. Your network is rude by its very existence, if it lets spammers relay crud by way of it. Your own arrogance in thinking it's not your problem to fix is astounding. Please don't bother to reply; it will take time away from fixing your network.
