Persistent email abuse that led to the email server being overwhelmed on
occaisons, we introduce these manually, and cross reference them against the
big block list databases to ensure it is a "persistent" issue. We use
blocking only to protect our own SMTP service not for filtering purposes.
Kornet
Whilst I can appreciate that Kornet may have issues with a lot of broadband
users, but the other big Korean company seems to have it solved. What I see
is what appear to be (using whois data!) US companies buying transit from
them. I'm no routing guru, but I assume it must be pretty obvious to Kornet
if some small US company starts buying transit from them (rather than say
some local US telecom provider) that they want it for nefarious purposes?!
Or is there something going on here that makes Kornet look unduely bad. Anyone
got a handle on what is going on in that regard.
