I appears that ISPs (in general; there are exceptions, of course) do a poor 
job of notifying the end user when they get a notice.  An outside person 
generally has no mechanism to determine the end user themselves.

Think about it... how many of you have given your ISP your main email 
address or phone number, so they can contact you in case of problems?  My 
ISP gave me some sort of email address when I signed up for DSL, and I have 
never once bothered to see if there is mail in there.  I have 5 of my own 
addresses, domains, etc... thanks.  Since I have DSL, they do happen to 
have my phone number.
