I think that is a rather ambiguously worded response from his ISP. It does not actually state that his account has been closed, only that it is at risk on being terminated. I find that many ISPs are often too soft on this sort of abuse and just give the offender a warning. I might be a little cynical here, but I suspect that they are reluctant to lose paying customers. -- Larry Brash |

Preferably from a throwaway account in case he decided to escalate. I checked Google, and cuddles4u just spammed a junk newsgroup--testing to see if he could get away with it, no doubt. If he spams here again, I'll report him again; it will give me something to look forward to on a cloudy night. --Bill Thompson |
