I suppose you don't have to - at some point they'll just turn it off and then we'll all know the email was legit :-). As to Ross' question: IIRC there exists, or existed at one time, a private(?) mailing list for IRR operators. I would start with [email protected], if that address still works. I can also reach out to the folks running the CANARIE IRR to see if they know, if necessary. -Adam Adam Thompson Consultant, Infrastructure Services MERLIN 100 - 135 Innovation Drive Winnipeg, MB, R3T 6A8 (204) 977-6824 or 1-800-430-6404 (MB only) [email protected] www.merlin.mb.ca > -----Original Message----- > From: NANOG <[email protected]> On > Behalf Of babydr DBA James W.
