Do you think that there is no need to have a contact for abuse issues?

Or do you think that it doesn't need to be e-mail?

You should consider that other methods (phone, fax, snail mail) create 
pretty big barriers for reporting abuse, like language (many can write 
some English, but not speak), phone and fax can be pretty expensive for 
some, and what use is a spam report after 7 day delivery time via snail 
mail?

If you still think e-mail address is not needed for abuse issues, please 
elaborate further.
