    Assuming that nominet actually get it right. In the meantime, everything I've
    seen from the uk is in there :-(

    Nothing, but it's not what the RFC says:

     The purpose of this memo is to aggregate and specify the basic set of
       mailbox names which organizations need to support. Most
       organizations do not need to support the full set of mailbox names
       defined here, since not every organization will implement the all of
       the associated services. However, if a given service is offerred,
       then the associated mailbox name(es) must be supported, resulting in
       delivery to a recipient appropriate for the referenced service or
       role.

    It also implies that abuse only applies to ISPs:

    For example, if an Internet service provider's domain name is
       COMPANY.COM, then the <ABUSECOMPANY.COM> address must be valid and
       supported,
