Odd, I have no problems at all sending abuse messages to yahoo and I actually get replies, whether their honest ones or not I don't know but they do come in. For instance: From: Yahoo! New Zealand <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Chris <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Reply to: Yahoo! New Zealand <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Hello, Thank you for writing to Yahoo! New Zealand. In this particular case, we have taken appropriate action against the Yahoo!Xtra account in question, as per our Terms of Service (TOS). From: Yahoo! Mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Chris <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Reply to: Yahoo! Mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Hello, Thank you for writing to Yahoo! Mail. In this particular case, we have taken appropriate action against the Yahoo! account in question, as per our Terms of Service (TOS). For further details about the Yahoo! TOS, you can visit: Note - I send all yahoo abuse reports to [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] via a set of scripts I run that were written by Karsten Self. -- Chris KeyID 0xE372A7DA98E6705C
