He was talking about the SC parser, If I read correctly he says entering the
link into the parser window yields the reporting addresses he showed.

There really is something weird going on, I've got some spam-sites that SC
will patiently sit and try for over a minute to parse, but it tries every
time, and others it mostly deosn't bother with, maybe after many tries it
will, some it parses one out of 3 or 4 times (I get a lot of repeat spanms
for the same site, so 1st report will parse, next one doesn't. (same site).
If SC caches some of the name resolutions, I think there is some kind of
problem with that part of the software.

Anyway, in my mind the only reason I want a parse is to get the name up on
the stats page, the hosters largely are unresponsive and don't give a damn
anyway (MCI, CNC-NOC,Tietong, hjtele kornet, hana etc.), but I'd like the
URBL's to get access to the names so spamassassin can help reject/kill more
of these spams for sites that use it. I'd be really happy if SC simply
offered up a way to make these domain names available (as in the stats page)
somehow. Also in some countries, particularly the middle east, that gets the
domains and IP ranges automatically blocked at their gateways. I know their
is collateral damage, but it seems the only way to get ISP's to shape up is
for them to have unhappy paying customers.

Otherwise it's mostly a game to annoy the spammer, and a successful parse of
a misbehaving site is a little like thumbing your nose at a quarry in hide
and seek.
