Well, we disagree in the definition of abuse maybe? You can find many definitions of this: "Spamming is the abuse of electronic messaging systems to send unsolicited bulk messages, which are generally undesired" So, spam is abuse, and I don't need to know IPs to send spam. The mail server will use DNS to find them. Regards, Jordi -----Mensaje original----- De: anti-abuse-wg <anti-abuse-wg-bounces at ripe.net> en nombre de ox <andre at ox.co.za> Organización: ox.co.za Fecha: martes, 29 de mayo de 2018, 15:57 Para: JORDI PALET MARTINEZ via anti-abuse-wg <anti-abuse-wg at ripe.net> Asunto: Re: [anti-abuse-wg] GDPR - positive effects on email abuse I am so happy that you are asking this question :) This is what causes much confusion with people, including experienced netadmins, sysadmins and many very technically advanced people. You can use any email address as an example: anti-abuse-wg at ripe.net Please think about it for a second: How would you go about sending spam to this email address without using an IP number? It is not possible for Internet abuse to exist - without an IP number. So, for this wg : EVERYTHING that is abuse is powered by IP numbers.
