I did search his site for abuse links.  The only link he had allowed you to 
enter your email address to block it from future emails that required a 
response from the desired email account.

He gave no link to contact him directly and he had no link to report Usenet 
abuse.

I'm glad to see another remailer that is helping to abuse others down the 
toilet.

I just got an email from DYNDNS:


"Hello,

This customer has been contacted and told to secure their server or face
termination.

There is no reason to allow anonymous postings to the Usenet.  As an example 
I post with a faked email address to keep me from getting Spam but if I 
posted something illegal it would be easy for me to be traced by my ISP. 
Beyond doing anything illegal if like the original poster I was doing things 
that breaks my use agreement with my ISP my service could be terminated.

The latter was the problem with the remailer, he decided to use DYNDNS yet 
allow his customers to do anything they wanted to.  That broke his agreement 
with DYNDNS.
