the newsgroup misc.immigration.australia+nz has been bombarded
more and more with unwanted commercial spam from a customer
of ca.com.au.  The postings may even be illegal as they appear
to be offering immigration advice without providing the required
immigration agent identification number.

I note that ca.com.au is a member of the WAIA, I wonder if
WAIA is planning to do any self regulation of memebrs?

abuse@ca.com.au bounces, there's been no response fron
postmaster@ca.com.au.

What sort of code of conduct should an ISP have?  Should they
be required to have an abuse alias?  Should they be required
to answer all email to that alias?

Should terms of service be clearly available on a web page so
people can see if a user is violating them?

I can't find a terms of service for ca.com.au on www.ca.com.au but
maybe I wasn't looking in the right place.

Does the WAIA have a web page with their code of conduct anywhere?
