The registration page mentioned that some domains were blocked and this
list could be emailed to get one unblocked, though I don't know if that
included individual addresses on a domain. If not, I'm not sure how someone
would contribute without paying for an email address.

For "-o 82,1300" the spec (
https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc8357.html#section-4.1) says the length is
0. When I tested some other values in place of 13 (don't remember which, I
think some random higher value and 01) they didn't seem to have an issue
with 0 length data.
