That is an excelent suggestion, If that is you can identify him, and
prove he's violated laws (Which may well be the case here) and if his
ISP will cooperate then perhaps you can get him gone.

I remember one of my neighbors (if you call 30 miles neighbors) Sanford
(Spamford) Wallace of "Save a tree" fame. One of the first highly
prolific spammers on the internet.

Seems that one day a group of good old boys got together and started
pinging his ISP. Thousands of pings, non-stop for many hours, way more
than his Dearborn Michigan based ISP cold process, Brought them down,
Now understand that they have dozens of legitimate business clients who
were, quite logically, peaved. So they identified the source of their
irritation and pulled Spamford's plug. suddenly the ping attack vanished.

(Please note my only part in this was as an observer after the fact, By
the time I knew what was going on the attack was history, I had nothing
to do with it, DNS attacks such as this are illegal)

Well Spamford sued, seems his contract with his ISP said they had to
give him 30 days notice.. IT is at this point he made the newspapers and
I got to read about it. The judge took 2 weeks to decide the case, her
decision (Which I applaud) was "Yes, they have to give you 30 days, so
they have to hook you back up but 30 days from the day they first
pulled the plug, they can pull it again. (And so they did)

The good old boys who did the DNS on the ISP, were satisified and
respected the court's decision, gave the ISP the two weeks unmolested
and then ... The ISP did not need to be warned twice they pulled the plug.

Last I heard Spamford was having a bit of a problem finding a new host
so he tried to become an ISP himself but those who administer the net
would not grant him a domain name. Gee.. Sucks to be him.

I'm not suggesting this be done to our spammer here

but if enough folks send enough E-mails to his ISP, they are going to
have a problem with their postmaster's mail box

So if someone would post the E-dress of his postmaster... I'd be happy
to send an E-mail of complaint
