Like spam.

Can anybody decipher this spammer's header info to find out who he's
posting this stuff through? Obviously, it's not newsfeeds.com (look at
the path and the message ID). Besides, I filed a complaint with
newsfeeds.com yesterday and they haven't gotten back to me yet.

I'm thinking that this garbage is being posted through t-online:

http://www.t-online.de/c/00/00/04/46.html

I also know that the website being promoted in the spam is hosted
through Ecommerce:

http://www.ecommerce.com/

and that they have an email address for complaining about abuse here:

ab...@ecommerce.com

(don't use your main email address to complain to them though.)

Luckily, this machine did not see the spam as its on a text server which
seems to have good filtering.

It's cross-posted to several groups. I don't know which group you're
posting from, but this thread continues to be cross posted too. Thus, it
is to wonder how your server is filtering because you saw my reply and
it was cross-posted too.

I'm on alt.comp.blind-users
Unless we actually ask to see the groups the reader does not offer them in
speech.

I imagine it knows the original is spam, but allows the followups. How many
groups are there. Normally it removes all but three.
