Dear webmasters,

I have visited your site http://www.healyourchurchwebsite.com and I think that content like
Anyone who’s visited this site with any frequency already knows my deep loathing for spam. So imagine my grousing when I heard some of the great people listed on blogs4God got spammed by a similar list. This was soon outdone by an audible growl when I began receiving e-mail from members asking if this message was from b4G or if we had resold the list.

I, too, often get negative feedback from the brethren on counter-measures, but what should we expect from a bunch of milk-fed sucklings? They have not the stomach for this fight. I believe that there is only one thing that will stop spam: making the endeavour so expensive that it become unattractive to these slimeballs. Legislation won't do it; here in Delaware we have in place an anti-spam law. You just have to spend a bunch of cash in order to defend against it in court, and such laws, as they are written now, won't be any resort for users. Recently at work I blocked an entire range of IP addresses (mostly Korea and China). I informed the pointy-haired people that people living in those countries may have difficulty contacting us ;-) They had no problem with that because we don't do business there, but I think once law-abiding SE Asian users get outraged enough, things may change.
