Perhaps try the list archives?

I think you may be misinterpreting the primary use scenario for this 
format.  It isn't intended to replace human-to-human communications 
between abuse teams, but rather to support automated processing of 
complaints.  Most of the examples you gave are much more difficult to 
automate.

Rather than trying to create a format that encompasses everything 
poorly, we chose to focus on doing a few things extremely well.
