I didn't really mean to go all out, anti-AT or anything. I was just merely using them as an example because when they block an IP address the bounce back message says to contact them directly at an email address. If instead of the email address this pointed to a form on their website, I think

It depends on what context you are referring to. Are you talking about abuse contact as a means to dispute abuse complaints? In that case, I'd say a form is better. An example is AT When AT blocks our server, the bounce back message tells us to send an email to abuse_...@abuse-att.net. I'm

getting a 550 response to mail volume implies a volume well over 1M messages a day (though, it could just be a temporary spike and not sustained)... 400 messages/day is about what we estimated a customer service rep could handle in a shift if the replies are basically just FAQs, do you think they
