[anti-abuse-wg] working in new version of 2019-04 (Validation of "abuse-mailbox")

This is the key point.

We already agreed to have a mandatory abuse-c.

We can change our mind and make it optional.

But one way or the other, should be a *real* one. A validation that can be faked just using (for example) Carlos email, is not a good procedure. It doesn't make sense at all.

We are not saying the RIR will need to verify that an abuse case is investigated or resolved. This is not the point.

    Hello,
    
    (Going perhaps a bit off-topic...)
    
    If people are not able to follow the rules of the registry, maybe they 
    shouldn't be allowed inside the system... :-)
    
    [Fact 1]
    If someone provides falsified documents to the registry, that someone goes 
    off the wagon.
    
    [Fact 2]
    If someone doesn't pay the registry in due time (after several warnings), 
    that someone goes off the wagon.
    
    <please feel free to add more here, if there are more ways of falling off 
    the "registry wagon"...>
    
    
    I would also feel comfortable if someone who indicates a 3rd party e-mail 
    address as the abuse-mailbox for their _OWN_ address space, goes off the 
    wagon (after some warnings, of course...).
    BTW, some years ago our physical address was added in whois to someone 
    else's address space in a different RIR and that was _NOT_ a nice 
    experience...
    
    
    Regards,
    Carlos
