I never said that wasn't a suspicious name but spammers euros are indeed green just like everyone elses so how do you know who is a goody and who is a baddy? Where do you draw the line with a registration? Are you going to have a committee look at each and every registration to see if they like the look of it, or if they think it might be possible used to send spam? The spammer could just as easily register a domain that uses real words, in fact our mail server blocks hundreds of spams a day, most are from ordinary looking domain names. > What a cop-out, Paul...the fact that they allow registrations like the > one > above is enough reason for me not to do business with them. I'd be interested to see any registrar that would block what is technically a legitimate registration. Who do you use? Paul
