Actually the thing to do would be to mail all the spam complaints to the
relevant addresses @abuse.net... but each user has to register for this
service before use.

Then you just mail to <domain.causing.trouble at abuse.net> and it gets
forwarded to the addresses they've identified as being appropriate.

That's intended for spam. Not sure whether multiple thousands of incoming
Klez from a domain count ;)


Cheers,


Nick
