Spam
Cop is an excellent free service to report Spam to the
appropriate authorities. Their innovative program will
attempt to track down the 'actual' e-mail senders' ISP or
web host to prompt appropriate actions. We have found this
to be one of the best Spam fighting services around. |
| ORBS |
ORBS,
or the Open Relay Behaviour-modification System, is a
database for tracking SMTP servers that have been
confirmed to permit third-party relay. These servers
permit spammers to connect to them from anywhere in the
world, usually from a modem connection, and then forward
the Spam to its intended victims. It also tracks networks
that prevent ORBS from verifying whether or not their SMTP
servers continue to permit third-party relay. |
| Abuse.net |
The
Network Abuse Clearinghouse is intended to help the
Internet community to report and control network abuse and
abusive users. Since
the best place to report abusive activity varies from one
system to another, we're trying to keep a master database
of reporting addresses for users throughout the net to
use. |

California nonprofit company whose goal is to stop the
Internet's e-mail system from being abused by spammers.

community have required that we each refrain from
intentionally annoying other Internet citizens." -
