That was meant to be a joke, right?

Spammers are stupid, and YES abuse addresses DO get spammed. Do you
think AT&T's people are going to do anything about spam in their abuse
inbox? NOPE... UNLESS it originated from an AT&T IP address. Most of
the people that handle abuse mail are so busy dealing with issues
protecting their own networks and enforcing their own TOS, they don't
have time to complain to other companies if they get spammed.

And if the spammers think that those people are going to take the time
to read and possibly react to the spam, then that's just more evidence
of how stupid and desperate spammers are.

OK, don't mean to stretch this thread out any more. Just my 2 cents on
this subject.
