I've done a list subscribe request, on your behalf, to make it easier for you if you'd like to make a difference - either for or against my opinion which is: "Blocking port 25 is bad for the Internet (as a whole).". I know my initial post (to NZNOG) wasn't recieved too well.
You do realise that this has questionable legality under the Crimes Amendment act that was passed recently ? and will almost certainly be illegal under the new Anti Spam laws that will probably be passed shortly.
So the law is and will be wrong, once again. At least stupid laws are good motivators for better ideas. Thanks for bringing that up though.
Please let this thread die, we all understand that you don't like port 25 blocking - no one really cares all that much tho.
So, NZNOG doesn't care about the Internet in NZ and how this affects it?!? Can you please explain your logic here, that will help me (probably all of us) where you are coming from. I'd rather see the thread continue, I speak for others as well. Oh, and for the record Wieste has contacted me on this. So that I can clarify a few things for him. I'll be following that up soon (not tonight). I hope some of you find this interesting enough for me to post the results, I know some won't. -- Cheers James Clark
