[Moon-net] [Moon] Problems with ISP wanadoo.fr

[F2TU Philippe]

Hi Doug,
I already know this problem with VK3NX and orange.fr, the substitute of 
Wanadoo.fr. Is Australia in conflict via Internet with France??? Look that.
But I receive also spams of xxx at orange.fr and which are usurpations: the 
supplier is not Orange.fr !!!
