After the 'IDNET-v-ZEN' conversation of last week, I got a reply 
regarding the abuse and spam from IDNET customers. I was told this was an 
'isolated case' by IDNET.

A review of a few weeks worth of logs show it to be anything *other* than 
isolated. For an ISP of their size it looks like the spam output from 
IDNET customers is consistently high - be this deliberate or by bot 
infestaion.

So a big thanks to IDNET customers for your ongoing support of a spam 
friendly ISP :-P
