I understand your earlier point; if the NOCs at the major NSP's are uncooperative, then e-mailing them isn't going to help much. > > IOW - I agree with Karl. > > Or maybe not. Email has its limitations. Perhaps after one or two occasions where the NOC refuses to help we could sic a couple lawyers on 'em. Perhaps, since we're talking about a legal issue here, certified mail saying "you're an accessory to a DoS attack" (or at least "You're aiding and abetting") may work better than e-mail.
