I was not suggesting bombardment, just rerouting of mail messages so that
they go to the person(s) responsible for all the junk mail.  Look at it this
way: Due to incorrect management and/or software, many megabytes have already
been sent to the wrong people.

UUCP may be primitive, but it is the arpa sites that are exhibiting the
brain-damaged behavior.  Being fortunate is a matter of perspective.
