Ah, the power of branding.

Prodigy the brand (and I believe whatever remained of the company) is
currently with SBC (though you'll notice they push the Yahoo! cobrand
considerably more) in the US.  In Mexico, Prodigy Infinitum is the
broadband service offered by TelMex, which I believe is the main land-
line carrier south of the border.  It uses the same logo Prodigy was
using before getting assimilated into SBC, so maybe there's some brand
licensing agreement in place.  Who knows.  The point being that several
spams and worms make their way from that particular broadband network.
Enough for me to have a filter rule that specifically dumps anything
coming directly from a client host without first going through their
official mail relay.

And for a real shocker, the "@Home" brand is still in use by Dutch
cable provider Essent: www.Home.NL .
