GoDaddy's abuse desk is not so easy to work with...I have had two different times that a whole /24 was blocked even though parts of the address space were split between different providers (and customers), but GoDaddy would hardly relent. Took over a week to get that resolved.

Are you sure it's genuine? Those WWD domains (especially secureserver.net) account for a large fraction of the spam and phishing attempts I receive.
SecureServer.net is GoDaddy. If you have domains hosted at GoDaddy or a reseller, your customer notifications come from that domain. They also do web and email hosting, which is probably why you're seeing the abusive behavior, but they do have a working abuse desk, so if you see stuff from there, definitely report it. -- Steve Sobol, Professional Geek ** Java/VB/VC/PHP/Perl ** Linux/*BSD/Windows Apple Valley, California PGP:0xE3AE35ED It's all fun and games until someone starts a bonfire in the living room.
