Marilson, I'm not sure who warned you regarding your emails, but it certainly didn't come from the Co-Chairs of the WG. We absolutely welcome discussions of network abuse on the list, just as we welcome ideas on how to improve things, including policy suggestions for the RIPE community. However the reality of the situation is that mails to this list will not suddenly cause the spam to stop. Neither the RIPE NCC nor the RIPE community (as an entity) has the power to do that. The policy process is one of setting out what you want and then gaining consensus, that is the only way that things are changed in this community. The WG Co-Chairs are available to help you with this process and to discuss what is possible. Thanks, Brian Co-Chair, RIPE Anti-Abuse WG On 29/09/2015 19:53, Marilson wrote:
THE ANTI-ABUSE-WG ARCHIVES:
In August 2015 the only discussion held was generated by a copy of my complaint addressed to an ISP - 13 messages
In September 2015 the only discussion held was generated by a copy of my complaint addressed to an ISP - 42 messages
Against the grain of these numbers I was politely warned that my messages to the list should certainly be blocked because I clearly do not understand what the list currently does.
I was also warned that the list is not the place to make complaints and that I should look for spamcop in the Google search.
I would like to clarify to the group that I always start my complaints in submit.snA38em0rJTkVJ7B@spam.spamcop.net, once finalized in spamcop I send the complaint to the ISP responsible for the spammer with copies to pertinent institutions. Andcopyto anti-abuse-wg@ripe.net.
I copy for anti-abuse-wg@ripe.netbecause I have noticed that my complaints have generated much discussion in the group. I thought I was being helpful. Since I am doing the wrong thing, I apologize to the group members and retreat myself wishing a good job for everyone.
Greetings
Marilson
