I agree.

By the way, email is not the only means of contact for
operational issues. There is also the telephone, but
the problem is that most effective numbers are unlisted
and those who know them really don't want to publish
them. INOC-DBA was supposed to solve this issue, but
I don't think enough people know about it. Or perhaps
it's number plan tie-in to ASnums tends to restrict
it to only people involved in peering.

There are a number of issues surrounding operational
contacts, that I would suggest that the topic needs
a FAQ of its own. The email filtering/ticketing issues
are just one aspect of the problem.
