Spammer Scott Whittle has harvested not only email addresses from the
NANOG list archives, but also Message-IDs, and is busily trying to
abuse the hell out of them.  I've seen 6 (edit: 11) (edit: 14) copies
so far this morning, and no doubt more are on the way.

He identifies himself thusly:

        IP Technology Labs
        Network Communications Simplified
        Scott Whittle | President | T: +1 301 570 6611 x601 | M/SMS: +1 301 339 3237 |
        E: scott () IpTechnologyLabs com | W: http://iptechnologylabs.com

Although the spam itself carries a return address of

        Return-Path: <scott.whittle () iptechlabs com>

So blocking on the latter should suffice, at least for this round.
