Cool.  I can do that.  With the number of mailing lists I'm on, hitting the 
2500 mark for training does not take long.  I don't mind messing with my 
account if the end result is a better overall experience for all of my users.  
Thankfully the worst list for spam (misc@openbsd) has gone to a member only 
model, so no more spam from there.  On the flip side when I was doing business 
with equifax I gave them a unique-to-them-only address, the amount of spam to 
the address is ridiculous.   Of course that's after my pre-dspam filters.
