Spammers almost always fake Return-Pathes, "Received"-data in headers
or give wrong unsubscribe- or contact-addresses in the bodies of their 
e-mails.

The reported e-mail abuse was neither sent by a T-Online customer, nor
by someone using the T-Online system and is not related to the T-Online
system or content maintained by T-Online. 

T-Online is one of the world's greatest ISPs, based in Germany. For 
obvious reasons, many senders of spam use "t-online.de"- or 
"t-dialin.de"-addresses to fake sender-details in their spam-mails.
T-Online is well known by spammers for it's zero tolerance for spam. 
So it is not mistaken to assume, that they fake T-Online customer-
addresses to sabotage our fight against spam by flooding our abuse 
department's mailbox with masses of unfounded complaints.

T-Online is not the proper entity to contact in this case and we are 
not in a position to take any action. If you still wish to pursue the 
matter, please contact the Internet Service Provider through which the 
e-mail originated.

With kind regards,

Sandra Buchmüller
