Following IP's where mined from the over 50 Spam messages sent to me over
the last couple of days.  Hope someone knows how to spam them back.  Or if
one of them is yours how it got on the list.

There are a plethora of RBLs out there with much larger IP lists of 
spammers than this... if you want to help fight spam, start contributing 
to the RBLs via something like SpamCop.

I, personally, don't put much faith in such things as blacklists.  IPs 
aren't always static, especially when spammers are concerned.  As such, 
I tend to deal with things on a per-email basis, using things such as 
DCC and Razor2 via SpamAssassin.  SA is set up to use a few RBLs, 
though, I think, to help skim some of the fat off the top.

As for the spamming them back... that's really somewhat pointless.  Just 
dealing with an IP, we can look up the real owner of the IP, and spam 
them, but they likely aren't the spammers themselves, and fighting fire 
with fire usually just turns more things into ashes...

Report 'em, sure, but don't spam them.

Also, be wary of posting large lists of IPs to public forums such as 
this.  Some ISP's AUPs may forbid such posts.  Off of usenet, on 
webboards, such posts are generally killed on sight.

Also, your sig delimiter seems to be broken, it was '--' instead of '-- ' 
or so my news client said.
