Re: Follow the money I've always thought that ISP's should enforce users to login into their smtp mail server using a password. At present most dont. Also mail should only be sent from the legitimate account holders address. e.g If I'm on NTL Cable and my email address is myname@ntlworld.com I can easily send an email from yourname@ntlworld.com. Surely a simply check would stop this.
This would then stop people using hacked PCs to send spam emails as the ISP would pick up hundreds of errors from the account and contact the account holder.
