In the (very rare) case of my name servers receiving unwanted traffic in this way, I’ve treated it as an abuse issue. Report to abuse@ the organization that’s doing the delegation that they’re generating undated traffic. So far that’s worked, but I haven’t yet had to email a gTLD registry. _______________________________________________ dns-operations mailing list dns-operations@lists.dns-oarc.net https://lists.dns-oarc.net/mailman/listinfo/dns-operations dns-jobs mailing list https://lists.dns-oarc.net/mailman/listinfo/dns-jobs
