OK, it's nice for spam fighting. However sometimes address from spam list
could be placed to recipient list of normal message by accident. In such
case sender would prefere his message to be bounced only for this address
and delivered to others, exactly as it happens for undeliverable addresses.
Probably such kind of spamtrap (e.g. spamtrap2) would be helpful too.

Another question: is it nesessary to retrieve full message body if spamtrap
condition is true? Maybe esmtpd could send 550 response immediately after
receiving RCPT TO with spamtrap address?

Alexei.
