Uh, jon, you seem to miss the point.  Using a firewall or any other sort of
block/filterer will not solve the problem.  Use your head, and think a
little.  All people on the same node as this individual are affected without
having to receive any of the mails/other crap the user is sending out.  The
stuff he is sending out is being sent out on the same pipe as other users,
and that is the complaint.  Where you got the misled idea that a firewall on
my network can somehow alleviate the bandwidth usage on an external network
is beyond me.  Maybe you're talking about one of those new ESP routers,
though.  Think, damnit, and more importantly, listen, before you flap your
jaw.
