Well, according to the mailing list policy, owl@********.com owes each of
these 3 lists: NERPS, ShadowTK, and ShadowRN $1999 american. Its legally
binding and I'm leaving it up to Mark Imbracio to inforce. He has access
to the machine that ShadowRN runs on and can better track the offender
down. The problem is I believe owlsnest.com is one of those providers that
are designed for spam email, so the chances of getting this guy are slim to
none. I find it a shame that people do this, it was the fourth such spam
email I had receieved that day, and also the fourth complaint I sent out.
I urge all of you to write to the postmaster of any ISP that sends out spam
email. If they get complaints, most are good about removing the offenders
account.
