Hello,
=20
After a weekend of heavy spam last month, we decided to fire some
reports over to the abuse contacts for each relevant IP or domain - some
US/Europe based, others from more "obscure" locations.

We've not had a reply from any of the reports sent over, other than some
automated bounces. Each report from us contained detailed information
about IP, date, headers, spam content, relevant ranges etc ...=20

How many of you (honestly) actively manage and respond to abuse@ contact
details listed in WHOIS? Or have had any luck with abuse@ contacts in
the past? Who's good and who isn't?

Apologies in advance if this has been around before - I'm new here. (:
