Yeah, earthlink offers that crap to their users. Sorry, but if you
don't want my mail and you're not my mother, to hell with you. I ain't
jumping through hoops to unsub from a spammer list I never joined, and I
ain't submitting to the old rubber glove exam before you can see my email.

I've been joed by several folks with earthlink because of that system.
The spammer puts my domain in his return address, and I get the stupid
bounce from their software. Fine for them, they never see it, but
it does me no good. Of course, I now just autobounce it all to the
earthlink abuse desk. 8-)

This is an extremely poor solution to spamming.
