Done that, been there.
I guess if I started my own email remailing service and let every
spammer in the world use it and it already had millions of email addresses
in a database and all they had to do was send 1 spam to my server and I just
rebroadcast it to all the email addresses  in the database I guess that 
would be okay?
I would not be listed either? It would not be a SC problem??
