Atlantech Online, Inc. - "spam with unsubscribe links is not spam, go unsubscribe". Guess what, Atlantech Online? Spam is Unsolicited Bulk/Commercial Email, and it doesn't matter if it includes unsubscribe links, contact phones, spammers' addresses, or their girlfriends' teets sizes! And it also doesn't matter if somebody suddenly comes with a legislation that permits spam. It IS forbidden here, so is the access from those ISPs who help spammers to stay connected. It means YUU, Atlantech Online, Inc. atlantech.net, atlantech.org [207.188.192.0 - 207.188.255.255], [209.183.192.0 - 209.183.255.255]: Access denied! === The evidence === Path: uni-berlin.de!fu-berlin.de!postnews.google.com!not-for-mail From: john.poindexter@wowmail.com (John Poindexter) Newsgroups: news.admin.net-abuse.email Subject: RBL atlantech.net (for worldsecuritynetwork.net/.com) Date: 2 Dec 2004 15:37:59 -0800 Organization: http://groups.google.com Lines: 186 Message-ID: NNTP-Posting-Host: 128.138.86.186 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit X-Trace: posting.google.com 1102030679 13462 127.0.0.1 (2 Dec 2004 23:37:59 GMT) X-Complaints-To: groups-abuse@google.com NNTP-Posting-Date: Thu, 2 Dec 2004 23:37:59 +0000 (UTC) Xref: uni-berlin.de news.admin.net-abuse.email:2364064 Atlantech.net refuses to terminate their spammers and requires you to unsubscribe from the spammer's spam list, as proven from their response below (after ignoring previous reports from everyone). Atlantech also claims that if the spammer includes a remove address in their spam, then it isn't spam at all! I have included this email from them below too. Unbelievable what spam hosts say! It is time to take action against this spam host. Please help if you can. Thanks. This is a public posting account (I get enough spam already), please post responses.
