Michele, The query is over the abuse details they have listed in both the RIPE database and places like abuse.net, rather than phone or postal details. That aside, however, currently there is no policy or procedures for RIPE to follow up on incorrect contact information in the database. Motion was made in this direction after the last conversation on this topic in August of 2007, however nothing was achieved. I will not make any rash promises at this point and I suspect a rehashing of the discussion from last year is unlikely to be helpful without some new input. In addition while RIPE has produced a number of documents (most recently RIPE-409) regarding best practice for the members neither the NCC nor this WG are empowered to act to stop an ISP or their customers from sending out unsolicited emails. So, in short, we are not the right people to whom to report this issue. Regards, Brian. Michele Neylon :: Blacknight wrote:

The RIPE database indicates that the proper venue for this report is abuse@localhost . However, the server at that address rejects with the admonition, "You are not allowed to send emails!" (Diagnostic code: smtp;550 5.7.1). The hostmaster gives the same reply.I'm fairly new to investigating spam, being recently inspired by a fewprodigious spammers that flood my inbox daily with repetitive invitations. Among these is US Pharmacy, which somehow causes its unwanted blandishments to be sent to me from networks all over the world, including the above ISP. I'm not sure how this is accomplished, but I suspect a virus of some sort infects the sending computer which allows it to be controlled remotely.Not allowed, R.Duck.
