Hi Lindani,

we're an italian ESP and we never had success contacting Alice.it postmaster.
Alice.it is the freemail domain of the biggest telecom operator in
italy (Telecom Italia, now named TIM).

We never had major deliverability issues (blocks/junking) there, but
sometimes their server are very slow (don't know if it is throttling
or simply overload) and queues get very big (last time was the past
february and lasted a couple of weeks). We use a very very high
timeout for them (20 minutes, instead of 2 minutes we use for everyone
else) because we experienced double deliveries due to timeout on our
side after the ending DATA "." (the very point the RFC says the server
should try to answer as fast as possible to avoid double delivery).

Once (a couple of years ago) I also tried contacting them because of a
bad vulnerability in their webmail but I received no answers to that
too...

I also have friends buying servers from Telecom Italia (so they are
customers) and they also had no success getting in touch with a
postmaster for alice.it .

Maybe there should be a dnsbl for domains /dev/nulling postmaster@
address and not only for the one not accepting postmaster/abuse
recipient ;-)

You may want to try
postmaster@(alice.it|aliceposta.it|tim.it|telecom.it|telecomitalia.com|retail.telecomitalia.it)

With abuses you may want to try
ab...@retail.telecomitalia.it
ab...@telecomitalia.it

and the only one that ever answered an email to us (a lot of years ago):
staff...@telecomitalia.it

Their only known interactive communication channel is twitter:
@tim_official ... maybe you will have success tweeting them in
"public".

Good luck and let us know how it goes.

Stefano
