As a business person dealing with problems originating in part from Bellsouth IP blocks, I am surprised you have not taken the time (have you?) to send a letter or email to Dwight Ackerman, CEO of Bellsouth and letting him know about the problems his ISP division presents in being anti-standard in the ISP industry. Let me know if you need his email addy.
As a network admin ,its been my experience that Telco's just dont give a shit about who gets harrassed with spam coming from their network. I block so much of verizon, SBC, Bell south, etc its not funny. I find it easier to harshly firewall telco ip ranges then waste time bitching at some suit who probably cant even tell me what TCP stands for, let alone understand the problem of spam. Eventually when many of these large isps are so heavily blocked and firewalled their their network traffic comes to a crawl (Hello NAC anyone?), they will get a clue and clean up. In the mean time, say hello to my little friend (waves iptables at the spammers on Bell south) |
