No.
There is a valid domain (I assume) "euphoria.com", but these messages did
not originate there and you will be inadvertently harassing a helpless site.
These messages originated at Internet Direct (indirect.com):

The InterNIC Registration Services Host contains ONLY Internet Information
(Networks, ASN's, Domains, and POC's).
Please use the whois server at nic.ddn.mil for MILNET Information.
so you should be bitching at "hostmaster@indirect.com". Since that is
an extremely vague address, you might try some of the following if you do
not get a response:
EXPN <root>
250 Internet Direct Administrator <root@bud.indirect.com>
EXPN <postmaster>
250 Michael Swinson March <march@germaine.indirect.com>
EXPN <help>
250 User Support Services <support@bud.indirect.com>
EXPN <support>
250 User Support Services <support@bud.indirect.com>
EXPN <hostmaster>
250-David M. Crumpton <\crumpton@bud.indirect.com>
250 Internet Direct Pager <|.filter@bud.indirect.com>
I've seen a lot of crap coming from this site lately, as my memory serves..
so I suspect you won't get an answer or any satisfaction.
