Spamming Question

A client of mine recently had their AOL account disabled.  When they inquired 
why, they were told that over 1,000 porn emails had been mass-mailed from 
their account.  Needless to say they didn't send the emails.  Somehow their 
email address was spoofed.  Of course their first problem is using AOL.  They 
have been warned.  My point is, it's pathetic when the largest most prolific 
ISP in the world doesn't have the means in place to prevent this crap.  

Port-Sentry has saved my butt a number of times.
