Hello,
The account responsible has been located, terminated and billed for cleanup
costs.
MindSpring does not condone and will not permit abusive behavior by its
users. Though no summary judgements will be made, all complaints we
receive will be actively investigated and action will be taken when and
where it is appropriate. Depending upon the severity of the abuse and the
history of the account involved, we may take any one or more of the
following actions:
issue warnings: written or verbal
suspend newsgroup posting privileges
suspend the account
terminate the account
MindSpring considers net-abuse an action that undermines the ability of a
newsgroup, mailing list or IRC to serve as a discussion forum. In
addition, net-abuse may be a violation of state or federal law, or the
laws of other countries.
