Allowing resellers to send emails, either as the losing or gaining

Dear Tom: You are addressing the most important element of the transfer problem.

Some registrars give their resellers a very long leash -- if any at all. I frankly don't trust some of the reseller networks.

And how about the reseller's resellers networks; and the reseller's resellers' resellers?

We're a long long way from the original Code of Conduct provisions:-( Few of these registrants have any idea who is the real registrar. I think ICANN should look at the problems created by these broken lines of authority. Certainly I would like to put the resellers' RRA Agreements through the scrutiny that *we* Accredited Registrars must contend with.
