NZNOG-People, I have just finished migrating all of the mailing lists held at The University of Waikato from one server to another.

RE: [nznog] DomainNamesNZ

This has been taken up by the DNC - check out her website for the latest info. I'm not sure whether they are using an old version of the .nz zone file (although these haven't been available for at least 18 months), or they have some scripting engine pulling the information of the general WhoIs. This breaches the DNC policy on use of private information for commercial gain, yada, yada ...

Eg: I own learnbydestroying.co.nz and the "offer" is for learnbydestroying.net . How ever since these letters include; Reference #, MPID ? , Closing Date, Credit card details, and very little info to conclude that this is a Renewal many people have inadvertently paid the money ( $237 for two years ! ) thinking it's a Domainz or other registrar invoice. I'm not questioning the legality of this , as I am no expert, how ever im interested to know how so many of my clients and myself ended up with these letters? Anyone else experienced these letters or perhaps had clients pay for what they thought was a valid renewal?

spamarrest.com is offline
by Aaron Nielsen 28 Aug '03

28 Aug '03

It is seems spamarrest.com is offline. Had a customer who uses it ring as they can't check their mail - invalid username and password. spamarrest.com site says it will back online in a few minutes, but it has been offline since about 7:30 this morning. I wonder if they are under DDoS attacks or if it is a spin off from osirusoft.com and spews.org being closed down... Aaron
