When someone like AOL offloads their user complaints of spams to all the 
abuse@ addresses instead of verifying that they actually are spams before 
sending off complaints, is it any surprise that everyone else is refusing to 
do their jobs for them?

The reason abuse@ addresses are useless is because what is being sent to 
them is useless.
