I have to agree with Wolfgang here ... <br>
<br>
If any of our helpdesk engineers would click on a link or attachment in what we receive on the abuse-mailbox ... he/she would have to keep restoring the systems due to the massive number of malware that is received in it.. <br>
<br>
I still think that the best way to validate a current abuse-contact is during the ARC's ... <br>
It wouldn't require any additional process nor additional contact moments from the RIPE NCC's point of view to the resource holders. <br>
<br>
