Seems a bit like Russian roulette with abuse[at]prodigy.net at the moment - dnsstuff email test:

Step 1: Try connecting to all of these (in a random order, per RFC1123 5.3.4):

pi-mx-vip4.prodigy.net. - 207.115.57.16

pi-mx-vip3.prodigy.net. - 207.115.57.15

nb-mx-vip4.prodigy.net. - 207.115.36.23

nb-mx-vip3.prodigy.net. - 207.115.36.22

nb-mx-vip2.prodigy.net. - 207.115.36.21

nb-mx-vip1.prodigy.net. - 207.115.36.20

ff-mx-vip3.prodigy.net. - 207.115.20.22

ff-mx-vip2.prodigy.net. - 207.115.20.21

ff-mx-vip1.prodigy.net. - 207.115.20.20

pi-mx-vip6.prodigy.net. - 207.115.57.18

pi-mx-vip5.prodigy.net. - 207.115.57.17

Step 2: If still unsuccessful, queue the E-mail for later delivery.

Trying to connect to all mailservers:

nb-mx-vip1.prodigy.net. - 207.115.36.20 [Could not connect: Could not receive data: Operation timed out.]

And SenderBase (207.115.20.159):

Last day 5.0 11146%

Last 30 days 3.6 356%

Average 2.9

Just taking a stab at all of that, I think your reports were just caught in some sort of (temporary) internal overflow/ sharing hand-off glitch within the sbc system, caused perhaps by them biting off more than they can chew. If they don't want SC reports they just have to say so, so I don't think there's anything deliberate about what happened. Haven't checked abuse.net but have no doubt abuse[at]prodigy is the correct and current reporting address.

Their answer if the reports did get through would be "Use the unsubscribe links provided." Your answer would be "I don't unsubscribe to anything I didn't subscribe to in the first place." Their answer would be "Why not? Read the CAN spam Act." In a word, pointless. Miss Betsy reported occasional success in these sorts of cases by contacting the (publisher's) management. Otherwise (we all know) just about impossible to get off the list - they always have another publication to thrust at you.
