In my case, I started using tagged addresses within the last couple years (I can pin down the date, if relevant) -- Prior to that, I had everything running through a combination of dave@ and support@ accounts across three or four domains -- So any legacy contact information would use one of those two addresses. I now use opensrs@ for *all* of my reseller related communication (and this account in basically not spamfiltered), I use whois@ for all cases where I might appear in publicly accessible WHOIS records, and otherwise use support@ or domains@ depending on the context. I checked the obvious (to me, anyway) places that OpenSRS look to attempt to find my contact information. The "Contact information" section seemed especially relevant, https://rr-n1-tor.opensrs.net/resellers/index?action=edit_contact -- I use opensrs@ there in each and every single field (incidentally, I used to have an address in the "emergency contact" field that would page two of us at my company, as well as open a support case -- A marketing or otherwise less then useful message to that address cured my desire to be immediately reachable by OpenSRS on a 24/7 basis) In the "Tech Contact" page, https://rr-n1-tor.opensrs.net/resellers/index?action=modify_partner I use whois@ for my whois listed address, and the opensrs@ address at the bottom. Lastly, in the "Support and Whois information for customers" page at https://rr-n1-tor.opensrs.net/resellers/index?action=rsp_whois_info I use whois@ as well. None of the locations I've entered email addresses would seem to imply that they're appropriate for marketing drivel -- Perhaps a new set of contact information could be added? I'm more then happy to review new offers, services, or whatever else from companies I have an existing relationship with, that's not unreasonable. In fact, I tend to address a lot of that stuff to my personal mailbox, rather then hitting a generic role account. -- Dave Warren, MSN Instant Messenger: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Office: (403) 770-6140 Cell: (403) 690-3140 _______________________________________________ domains-gen mailing list [email protected] http://discuss.tucows.com/mailman/listinfo/domains-gen
