[ncc-services-wg] can we / do we want to enforce mail policies ? Is it our bussiness?

The RIPE NCC has not been given any authority to control the way
individual network operators configure their networks. 

However, the RIPE Database contains contact information for the
technical and administrative contacts of the networks registered. When
it is not possible to send e-mail to contacts it is often possible to
call them on the telephone and discuss problems that way.

Finally, if you do want to change the country code listed in the RIPE
Database for an inetnum object, then you might consider using "EU"
instead. It's often used as a placeholder for a two-letter ISO 3166
country code.

Regards,
