[Resolved] Using abuse#eircom.ie[at]devnull.spamcop.net for statistical tracking.

Eircom.net has been devnulled for quite some time. What was the reason for this? Any clues?

I'd be interested to know the actual reason too.

I thought that it may be per the request of eircom.net themselves. Months ago, after trying to send them a manual report, I received a reply(rejection) message which referenced their own reporting form at http://support[dot]eircom[dot]net/abuse/

Now if I see a SpamCop parse result with "Using abuse#eircom.ie[at]devnull.spamcop.net for statistical tracking.", I also submit a direct report on eircom.net's own form. I have received a positive follow-up response from them each time.

Abuse[at]eircom.ie was flagged as refusing our reports. I don't know why, so I removed the flag to see what happens. They may have done it themselves, but I have no way of knowing.
