[anti-abuse-wg] 2019-04 New Policy Proposal (Validation of "abuse-mailbox")

We belong to this group: " Some people are really thankful when they receive
a notice and they understand they have something to fix. :-)"
And we would be more happy if we have sure that all the abuse contacts are
real, at least in RIPE region.

No, not yet.

We assume some of the nasty stuff we see comes from infected devices. If
legitimate owners care to desinfect, it's possible we will receive less
events... i.e. everyone should be sending out more notices. Some people are
really thankful when they receive a notice and they understand they have
something to fix. :-)
