Can you belive what Spammers are doing now.


I recieved this request for work through Guru.com for a "service provider"

I am posting this for amusment only, as I have know way to get his information without giving him mine I really can't go any further that posting it here.

I'm sure he will find a host that can meet his needs.

Title: Dedicated Server Provider Needed
Category: Networking / Hardware / Telephone Systems
Description:
I am looking for a dedicated server provider that will host my business domains and provide POP3 emails for each domain.

I might be open to a relationship where you do not provider the actual server, but you know of a reliable server provider and want to be my technical support person for the server and you will help me reach my hosting and email marketing goals. To be my technical support person you must already have a relationship with a reputable server provider who can help me achieve the goals I have set.

My goal is to send out a minimum of 10 million emails a day using the server I rent from you, so I also need the server and software that will allow me to set up email sampaigns to promote and sell educational and consulting business services to more than 10 million email addresses per day without the limitation of bandwidth or the ISP hassle of being shut down.

My last server provider's server crashed every other day and I was unable to get my email marketing campaign off the ground, so reputation, reliability, and stability are important to me.

I will need technical assistance to help set up all the web sites and help with POP3 email setup for each web site, as well as assistance with the email marketing software. I have purchased the @engine email software from BulkISP but have yet to test it at its capacity on a server that works. The limitation of this software is that you are only allowed to use one message per campaign, but I am interested in sending out alternating messages per campaign if possible. Please recommend an email marketing software if you know one.

I need you to provide me a server and need the server provider with the ability to do the following:

- Provide customer references that I can speak with
- Setup within 48 hours
- 24/7 customer support and live technical support
- Windows 2000 server that supports Linux
- Unlimited bandwidth
- Unlimited email accounts
- PHP, ASP, CGI
- SSL/SSI
- DNS hosting with the ability to host 10-15 different web sites
- Sites that won't be shut down
- Ability to send out unlimited emails of at least 10 million or more emails a day
- Ability to set up email addresses for each site, including catch-all emails
- FTP ability to each web site directly
- Email software that will give me the ability to do the following:
- Can send out unlimited emails of at least 10 million emails per day
- Generate alternate messages for each campaign
- Alternate Subject matter
- Send to 1 recipient at a time
- Alternate “From” message
- Get around port 25
- Wash emails
- Give email mailing reports
- Remote access to server from anywhere using Terminal Services, VNC, or PcAnywhere
- Email washer service to comply with do not send recipients (like 65.241.16.254)
- Easy to understand instructions to operate email software and server
- Customer references that I can speak with

Thank you.

I actually was asking that question a while ago, when wanted to get a dedicated server... and I was told you can implement ASP-> Linux and PHP-> Windows..

I think that what he meant ...... was it!

Peace,

Possibly a win2K box with some form of VM/VPS with an instance of *nix running on it?

Why not offer it to him then suspend his site immediately for breach of your AUP, then pocket hte few hundred bucks he paid up front?

He needs to be thought a lesson afterall...
