earthlink
Sorry about that --- I blocked earthlink in disgust about six months
ago, when I noticed that my virus-rejection script had been faithfully
bouncing virus mails from the *same* earthlink account to abuse at
abuse.earthlink.net every few days for the preceding nine months, and
their abuse people quite obviously had taken zero action to get their
customer disinfected. Assuming they have any abuse people, that is, and
abuse@ isn't just an alias for /dev/null. I'm not planning to unblock
until I see some evidence that they have a functioning abuse desk.
