I suspect he tried abuse@netcathosting.com which seems to be in rfc-ignorant.

Looks like the server;

195.225.177.31

Has been spewing guest book spam (and wiki spam) out, as a quick google of 
"195.225.177.31 nice site" will show hundreds of links, although quite a lot 
of it just looks bizarre, and Dshield shows 80,000 odd reports port 80 probes 
in the last month from this address.

We've just cleaned up a lot of address book spam promoted sites, so I know it 
is relentless and tedious thing to squash.
