Who is david.r.williams? Is he still at Sprint?

I get two or three spam messages per day which are reported to him, but after two months, I feel that nothing is being done by Sprint.

yeah, I wonder also about reporting to sprint. Somewhere IIRC someone said that sprint is a backbone provider and backbones don't really care about spam since at that level it is all just broadband use (and broadband use is where they make their money).

It would seem that sprint, being as big as they are, could do something.

For some reason SC is preferring this to the abuse.net entries
postmaster[at]spcsdns.net (for spcsdns.net)

abuse[at]sprintspectrum.com (for spcsdns.net)

abuse[at]sprint.net (for spcsdns.net)

I have no idea why this is - you could of course send additional reports - and the parse itself will probably show the abuse addresses and the over-ride to david.r.williams. The deputies are always looking for the best contacts. Saw a note from Ellen in the NGs (spamcop.routing) recently to the effect she had just caught up with 3 month's worth of accumulated routing evidence there. Those (NG postings) are one source.

So yes, david.r.williams seems to be a current contact.
