It's kind of slow around here tonight so I decided to shoot off some
complaint emails to.... well, you all know who.  I *realize* it will
be about as effective a spitting in the ocean, but I thought it would
make me feel better.

My first complaint went to: abuse@nntpserver.com  

This is the response I got seconds later:

Your email to "<abuse@nntpserver.com>" <abuse@nntpserver.com> with the
subject "This is SPAM" has been blocked by the Friends system.
abuse@nntpserver.com only accepts email from people on a list of
approved senders to minimize spam, you are not currently on this list.
If you would like to be added to the list simply reply to this message
without changing the subject line.
