If you have problems with a JP domain, send it to me and I will
see who I can push, shove or generally embarrass in a public forum
in the appropriate language.
The address to send such complaints to will be "abuse@gol.ad.jp", the
usual abuse rules apply, please don't expect personalised responses.
<postmaster> is clearly optional, because reading RFCs is too. ^_^;
More often than not, there is an auto responder there because there
is no postmaster. (I kid you not.)
Getting providers here to institute <abuse> and or even take any
sort of measures against spamming by their own users is an uphill
task.
