Never has spam problems from a host Validus - worst was a "well-known host" who could not read English and had the communication skills of a critter in hibernation.
The initial "complaint" was hosting of copyrighted material belonging to some celeb. Duh? Asked WTF they are talking about - and getting nowhere.
The server was then pulled for almost a week with constant email and phone calls to their legal person and network guy. Pointless.
In the end, we found of some detail and it was an "infringment" - but not on our box, nor on their network, but stuck in an entirely different network in another country.
Obviously it was time to move hosts from that area of incompetency - despite "hot deals" to stay
