Mindspring uses PSI dial-up POP's outside of the Atlanta area and
uses BBNplanet's backbone service.

The spam from PSI comes mostly from from their POP's leased to other
ISP's but I have found PSI to be responsive and willing to report to
mere mortal users when a spammer is located and nuked. They could
give lessons to uu.net. Report PSI spam to abuse@psi.net if you can
read headers. The spammers forge a lot.

If Mindspring would offer shell accounts I would switch!
