Now, if there was no advantage, then why did 57% of all my spam that I
receive go through an open relay?
You and I have very different data. I look at most spam messages I
receive and only a handful (as I said, a few percent) have gone through
relays.
But please explain the advantage to the spammer of using relays. Even most
sites that are open relays generate proper "Received:" lines. SO it's just as easy to trace a spammer.
What are the number of spams you have received in the last year? How
many were on orbs that went on dul+rbl+rss when you received them?
How many on dul+rbl+rss?
I don't use any of those, so I can't tell, but I'd guess I get about 5
spam messages per day.
