But then again, if spam email uses minilien.com for masquerading evil
redirects, then
it's the site owner's problem. There is an explicit coverage on this
topic on the
SURBL.org site.
Redirection services such as tinyurl.com and (my own) memurl.com
looks up if the
destination hosts are blocklisted, and so should minilien.com
If we regard this one as a false positive, then it's free access for
spammail that
uses the minilien service.
I suggest we notify the site owner and let him act accordingly.
