Apparently, they do not intend to terminate these accounts. Eventually, they say they will install Spam Hippo to solve the problem...*sigh*. Here's a response I got: | We are aware that our news server is being abused, and have procured a | copy of the nice softwares from the hippo spameater ppl, which we will | be installing as soon as we possibly can. Our tech department is all | new, and will have to configure things from scratch before we get a | handle on this. We appreciate your cancellation on our behalf, and will | do our utmost to stop this mess once an for all...
