I'll follow up with them, and if you can provide me with some other "big company" blacklisting them too, I can enforce the case. But it happens that interbusiness in Italy is like AOL, so it's like I block all AOL. About changing ISP, it's very difficult in Italy because interbusiness is the Internet provider of Telecom Italia, that's the last mile actual monopolist and, to get ADSL connection, we all need to deal with it. Let's say you are excluding near 50% of italian on-line people. I don't know if it's fair. As my 90% of spam is coming from the USA, I should block all the USA mail, don't I?
