GenmaC is on a distinguished road
Defending corporations everywhere (the company I work for actually hosts verio.net - just a side note), I'd have to just let you know that tech support and the abuse department are always under constant siege - tech support bombarded by angry customers and idiots, and abuse hammered by ****ers trying to send 10k emails/hour or whatever.

For every 1 innocent that is inconvenienced (face it, your MUD address bouncing is not the end of the world), the abuse department has stopped at least 100 actual spammers.

Sure, I agree that it shouldn't have happened, theoretically - but godaddy is not out there monitoring your posts on usenet. Someone on Usenet complained to godaddy about your post, and they, while not reacting professionally, did react practically. Your 6 domains, at the rate godaddy charges, won't be a life or death loss/gain for them. However, if a valid complaint is overlooked, they could lose their uplink, which would mean an instant end to their business.

And this is why tech support hates you ;p
