mail from @yahoo.com hitting DNS_FROM_RFC_ABUSE
Every message from yahoo.com is hitting DNS_FROM_RFC_ABUSE...
$ dig yahoo.com.abuse.rfc-ignorant.org
yahoo.com.abuse.rfc-ignorant.org. 3600 IN A 127.0.0.4
...on the basis of this evidence...
http://www.rfc-ignorant.org/tools/detail.php?domain=yahoo.com&submitted=1123294881&table=abuse
I don't know how convincing this evidence is, personally... what do y'all think?
The score for that test is low, so it's not a big deal:
score DNS_FROM_RFC_ABUSE 0 0.479 0 0.200
But still, it's the principle of the thing...

I think it's *very* convincing..
After all, the whole point of abuse@<majorisp> is to accept abuse reports. If
you won't accept an abuse report on a phishing mail at your abuse address, your
abuse system is broken and thus RFC-ignorant.
Now I don't exactly think it's broken to "block phishing emails as a virus", as
Derek J. Balling claims in the evidence, but I DO think that your abuse address
needs to accept such reports.
