We have a strong system blocking out-going spam. However, in this case, the
spam was not sent from our site. It was posted directly on your site. It is
originated from your site. So only you can block it so neither you nor us
can be their victims. You should review all your postings before allowing
them to be posted. At the minimum, you should use keyword blocking or more
sophisticated spam-blocking system. By not doing so, you are enabling
spammers to spam your users and damage our name.



Your lack of spam-blocking/site security is the cause of the problem. It's
only a matter of time when the spammers take advantage of your
vulnerability. Blocking any domain will not solve the problem since the
spammers can arbitrarily choose any free email domain to register with you.

This is a BS response. The Cashette model incentives users to receive "spam" from legitimate sources by trying to get senders of spam to pay for their messages to get through. If a few board administrators decide that it's worth it to pay a couple of cents to let their automated registration emails get through to such users then Cashette and the Cashette users win.

Is anyone getting actual posts from cashette accounts, or just registrations? I suspect it's the latter.
