So far blocking by IP# hasn't worked for me, and you can't block by IP
C-class under the Cobalt gui; it only takes individual IP#s. Doing that
for every piece of spam I get, the amount of spam I'm getting is still
going up rather than down <frown>.
Since Orbz closed, I'm kind of at a loss myself <frown>.
