AHHH!  No, it most certainly is not!  abuse () yourisp com is for spam
*involving* yourisp.com's networks.  Please either parse the headers
yourself and report them yourself, or use some automated utility (such as
SpamCop).  We abuse desk folk have enough work just tracking down the
miscreants *on* our networks, we don't need to be responsible for those who
aren't.
