Heh! I went to their Website and posted the full contents of one
such posting.

Select any of the email addresses on the right-hand pane and don't
worry if it goes to the wrong section.
If it doesn't go to the right team, and/or doesn't have full
headers, it will almost certainly be ignored.
Unless....you send ALL of them! ;-)
Then wave bye-bye to *your* internet access.
It's just recycling and recycling's good isn't it ?
It's just a matter of doing what they do and shift around to another ISP

Just keep plugging away. Eventually people will learn that going online
with a pc that isn't 'online-worthy' gets them into trouble. Hopefully,
for their sakes, they'll find out before they become id-theft victims.
Sooner or later the message will get through to enough people to render
newsgroup flooding of this type no longer worth the time and trouble.
Perhaps there'll even be a few convictions of people who do it (either
knowingly or unknowingly through unprotected pcs). Persistence, time and
patience are all that are needed.
It's a little like driving a car that isn't roadworthy. Eventually they
get caught even if they haven't caused a disaster (personal /or/
involving other people).
