Has Aaron read a word of this discussion? How can he reply over and
over and not have understood a word of it.

As of last time I checked, around 2:30PM EDT 10/1/98, the porn site
involved in spamming and domain hijacking etc had an operational
address within the .to name space, and they continue to spam and
hijack/forge, the bounces and complaints are still coming in.

The server with the tongan consulate net address appears to be a web
server for some software company and has nothing to do with Tonga as
far as I can tell.  Is it located at the Tongan consulate?

Why is this your business?  Are you responsible for policing the .to TLD,
or are you responsible for administering the network at the Tongan San
Francisco Consulate?

If the answer is no to both of the above (and I suspect it is), get off it.
