After all, whois data for hotmail.com does not list the contact details of individual email users under @hotmail.com email addresses.<br /><br />Nominet do not have a database of whether an email address is an individual subscriber, so no, it is unrelated. Nominet details registrants (owner of a domain) not of email users, just as gmail.co.uk is Google Inc and not the @gmail.co.uk individual subscribers.RevKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12369263214193333422noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3993498847203183398.post-64757873958013921092013-07-29T13:26:16.688+01:002013-07-29T13:26:16.688+01:00Looks like your persistence here is paying off.

I guess the pre-1996 T&Cs were very different) I don't entirely see how this would help their defence though.<br /><br />2) Could they claim they made a genuine mistake as a result of the incorrect information on nominet's database, which it was your responsibility to ensure is correct, and hence no damages are due for past emails?<br /><br />I guess, technically, they can report this to nominet and you would then be required to correct the details shown on whois, though it's hard to see how this helps their defence.<br />Joseph Heenanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09814744420039144545noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3993498847203183398.post-32872239783027078992013-07-29T12:35:55.802+01:002013-07-29T12:35:55.802+01:00I am hoping that titanic.co.uk addresses might soo...I am hoping that titanic.co.uk addresses might soon become the least spammed domain in the country, ty Adrian.<br /><br />Imagine that huge irony if spammers are still web crawling and they pick up the Rev's address from this thread and add it to their,l lists!SimonFhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03711861360301638111noreply@blogger.com
