I learned all I ever want to know about that outfit after
enduring a few days of, sporadic, several hundreds per hour relay
attempts From: xxxx@aol.com To: xxxx@aol.com (where xxxx was
slang for various sexual acts and genitalia) from a few
.da.uu.net IPs.

Hours on the phone with their "abuse team" proved them to be
sympathetic, but totally ineffective.  A few minutes with vi and
sendmail.cf provided the cure.  :)
