Ok.  There are numerous other providers available.  I'm sure you can find them as easily as I can.  You also have the rcn.com email address in your whois record.

What assurance do you have that your house won't burn down tonight?  This is basic problem solving.  You have an issue, you do your best to solve the problem,. If the fix you tried doesn't work you move on to try something else.

You have posted complaints without solving the problem.  Now try a using a different email account.  If that doesn't solve the problem,, try another one.  If you don't want to use a different email account, you can consider moving your 5-cent.us domain to a different host provider.  You may want to set up a web/mailserver and start hosting your own domain.  There is no shortage of options available here if your objective is to actually solve the problem and not just to continue to post complaints.

There are many things that you can do to deal with this situation that will get you a lot further ahead than simply complaining over and over again.  That solution is not working now, based on your experience so far it probably won't work in the future either..  Now it's time to try a different solution.

I'm sorry if this sounds harsh -- it's not intended to be, really.  I get the impression that your enmity (or whatever the proper term is) against this nixspam outfit has blinded you to the fact that there are real solutions to be had.  This outfit is causing you a problem?  Ok.  Understood. Now take steps to route around it, suggestions are posted above, and the problem will go away.
