Complete editing could lead to the creation of bogus responses on whois.
Perhaps we could add the associated email with the OrgAbuseEmail and
OrgTechEmail?

There - currently - is no filtering on valid PTR

connectivity system
for our users and can incorporate that.
Whether or not everyone should do that is up for debate imo and if the
majority
should decide that and UCSD follows and makes it a rule of thumb
then indeed everyone should do that. Maybe discussion to be held with the
TAC?

It probably almost never is a problem. There are so many AMPRnet
addresses in use
without a proper registration in
ampr.org DNS (which
automatically creates the reverse DNS record) that this cannot be the
explanation for all of them.
Apparently the DNS for 44.144 is very incomplete,
the maintainer should
bulk-update it.
The DNS entries for 44.137 are completely in sync
with the hosts file
and addresses not appearing in that list are filtered at the
gateway, just
like on the UCSD gateway. Everyone should do that.
