Re: [policy-announce] 2006-04 New Policy Proposal (Contact e-mail Address Requirements)
Michele, The original proposal provided for enforcement. That part was removed because it crosses into another area of responsibility. However, if the proposal is adopted and then violated, another proposal could be made providing for enforcement. At least that is my understanding of the situation. You might note that I made this proposal because our security department was running into e-mail addresses that didn't work, were missing or directed one to a web site. All of these results dramatically increase the time required to report abuse of an IP address. If the proposal is adopted, I think there will be a lot of people and organizations interested in enforcement.

Michele,
The proposal as written should cover this. The requirement is for a working e-mail address that will accept messages - not one that will direct you to a web site.

Jeff that's fair enough, but what if the Ripe member ignores the policy? Is there any recourse? Michele -- http://www.mneylon.com/blog http://www.irishwebmasterforum.com/ http://www.armchair.ie/

Jeff that sounds reasonable. We've had a similar experience when trying to report abuse. Although I am subbed to this list from my personal address I am also one of the abuse contacts for a RIPE LIR :) A lack of response to an abuse report doesn't bother me, but bounces and web redirects are incredibly frustrating, especially when the web form is incomprehensible Thanks for the extra info Regards Michele -- http://www.mneylon.com/blog http://www.irishwebmasterforum.com/ http://www.armchair.ie/
