Hi Michael

Sometimes yes, sometimes no. You are presuming they haven’t devoted millions of 
dollars and people-hours to the issue. Sometimes the matter has been settled by 
the time you report it, or is about to. Or the account is being monitored for 
legal or operational purposes.

Auto-reporting to abuse@ for IP ranges is not going to be effective, nor 
welcomed without prior arrangement. Abuse@ is a cesspool these days, wading 
through the sludge of legitimate submissions is, to say the least, a challenge. 
I just finished work at a mega-provider, and we saw literally tens of thousands 
of emails inbound, daily. It Took splunk and some ingenuity to make sense of it 
all, between the stuff that wasn’t spam sent by geezers who copy the entire 
contents of their inbox over, to thousands of repeated complaints … it’s bad 
idea. Far better to set up a dedicated channel or access an API if possible.
