Some people have contacted me because they've been getting spam from addresses at radiac.net. To those of you who have been polite, thank you for letting me know, and to those of you coming here to complain, please let me explain.

As far as I know, this has nothing to do with me. This has happened to me before, and also to other domains I run and people I know. A spammer picks a domain, puts random words at the front, and then puts that in the from field. The actual spams are not coming from me or any of my servers; they appear to be originating from some kind of botnet, with source IPs in .cz, .pl and .ca to name a few.

And to those of you who still feel the need to whine, I'm pretty sure that this is affecting me far more than you. I've seen my average spam count go up by ~40,000/day this week from mails bouncing and being refused by mailservers around the world. And remember, it could just as easily be me getting spam from your e-mail address.

If you want to do something, tough. Get a better spam filter, or read my open letter to whoever buys from spam and send it on :)
