SPEWS.ORG down

Posted November 5, 2003 – 7:23 pm by Yakov Shafranovich in Spam and Email

According to WHOIS records at PIR the domain name of SPEWS.ORG has been deactivated:

Last Updated On: 03-Nov-2003 15:44:43 UTC

The name server is pointing to INVALID-ADDRESS.JOKER.COM. Looks like the spammers are at it again. For those folks that want to get to SPEWS, use SPEWS.US. There is also a Usenet thread on this.
