[AusNOG] Optusnet.com.au DNS administrator contact

[dasmo]

Took Telstra ages to stop doing this. Worse with them was their mail  
server - If you had an account with one of their hosting arms all mail  
from bigpond customers to you would bounce or just vanish (as it went  
into your Telstra hosted mail box). I was thinking of setting up an  
account with them for gmail.com or hotmail.com to teach them a lesson,  
but that would be wrong.
