Now I am working sinc 03/1999 with Debian and never goten one message
which was send directly to me and it was not SPAM. I get every day
between 500 and 8000 SPAMs in the mailbox I use to post here. 

So my E-Mail is worldwide known to SPAMers.  More then 80% of the
SPAMs coming to my Mailbox without using a smtp-relay.  Unfortunatly
my ISP in germany use the false DUL-Server or nothing at all, and I
must filter myself.

$USER are not criminalized, they are protected by DUL-SPAMers
