For your newsgroups file:
news.admin.net-abuse.email	Discussion of abuse of email systems.

The charter, culled from the vote result announcement:

News.admin.net-abuse.email is a forum for discussion of possible abuses
of e-mail.  Possible topics include mailbombing, denial-of-service attacks,
"listserv bombs", unsolicited and/or unwanted mail, email address lists,
mailing list abuse, large-scale mailings in general, chain letters, "email
viruses" such as Good Times, filtering software such as procmail, and so
forth.  Flames and other personal attacks received through email are not
on-topic, unless they are related to another form of abuse.

News.admin.net-abuse.email is unmoderated.
The news.admin.net-abuse.* hierarchy is for discussion of abuse of Usenet
and/or the Internet; it is not for discussion of abuse of groups or
indiviuals on such networks, such as flames, personal attacks, or off-
topic messages.

Binaries are specifically prohibited from all groups in the news.admin.*
hierarchy, except as examples of other abuse.  All messages removed by
unauthorized cancels in the hierarchy will be automaticly reposted by
Dave the Resurrector or a similar program, at the discretion of the
group moderator or, for the unmoderated groups, the operator of the
resurrector program.  Spams, gateway spews, and other attacks on the
system itself will be removed as appropriate, following standard Usenet
guidelines.
