Really???
It should say in the domain form where it was sent from (when they send
you a verification that its been taken care of and sometimes. atleast
they used to. attach the origional form to the end).
Not too long ago I had someone from AOL accidently delete one of my
lesser used domains (was about to start using it again) thankfully it
wasn't my main one!! But it was fixed within a few days.. the DNS server
was changed.
** They need some form of verification, you shouldn't be able to change
other domains -- I used to think that they at least verified that the
person sending in the request was one of the contacts.
