The better question is, how do you authenticate Ross' email, and how do you 
authenticate the... not the contents, but the authenticity & accuracy of the 
meaning of the email?
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.
