messages from mindspring.com. I have sent numerous messages to
postmaster and abuse@mindspring concerning this problem, and never
received a reply.
I'm the one who answers postmaster mail here. If we recieve a complaint
about spam/abuse, we take action. We have no hesitation about cancelling
an account due to abuse- Those aren't the customers we want to have.
I'm not sure what you might have reported, but if you sent us a complaint,
we investigated it, and took action if necessary.
If you have problems with a user, send the report to abuse@mindspring.com,
and it _will_ be taken care of.
