[anti-abuse-wg] abuse-c mandatory

  Hello,

I think you might be misunderstanding how mandatory contact information 
works.
As you can see, the mandatory e-mail field is set to nobody at accelerated.de
When abuse-c e-mail will become mandatory, their abuse-c e-mail will 
continue to be nobody at accelerated.de.
