Hi,
I've still got this spammer trying to use my machine to send Spam. My ISP (NTLWorld) seem either over worked, or isn't going to take any action.
So how can I redirect any connections to port 25 from a specific ip address to connect to another ip address. Basically I would like to redirect all the connections back to the spammers machine if possible.
Is this possible, or could this cause more problems.
1. There's very little chance that the IP you see is the actual box where the spam came from. 2. There's even less chance that that box is also listening for incoming mail. 3. When you lower yourself to their standards, and bully the wrong (innocent) person, you can become a subject of DoJ attention yourself. 4. Don't even dream that you have the required skills for this if you have to ask. 5. Get yourself hooked-up to an ISP with more clue, and less spamhause qualities. Theo -- Theo v.
