If you can filter on IP address, they're all coming from:
NNTP-Posting-Host: 24.186.189.211

Still continuing. Typical Path: reads:
Path: uni-berlin.de!fu-berlin.de!news.glorb.com!cyclone1.gnilink.net!
gnilink.net!hwmnpeer01.lga!hwmedia!hw-poster!fe08.lga.POSTED!
53ab2750!not-for-mail

with the first bits being the last part of the path. I don't know enough
about reading these things to say where it's coming from though.


All the headers I've looked at are allegedly from IP address 24.186.189.211.
According to ws.arin.net this belongs to Optimum Online (Cablevision
System), whose URL seems to be www.optimumonline.com.

But I don't know if this is genuine.

If I were to hazard a guess, I'd say that bit was faked.
Just a gut feeling though.

There are some complete morons out there. I wonder what we did to
deserver that attack?

They all seem to be coming from NNTP-Posting-Host: 24.186.189.211 at the
moment, so I suggest people filter on that.

Many at random have:

X-Complaints-To:

Suggest every one picks a random message and forwards it (including
the full header) to

The source machine appears to be 24.186.189.211, no reverse lookup
available. Who Is reports:

Optimum Online (Cablevision Systems) OOL-2BLK (NET-24-184-0-0-1)
