Pardon my ignorance, but if you are the one who 'generates' it and it
is truly 'arbitrary' then WOGGE would you *expect* it to 'exist'?
Or, perhaps backing into it, why 'generate' an address, known to be
'arbitrary', or otherwise, if the goal is to insure delivery?
Would it not be more reasonable to instruct / assist clients to have a
'quarantine' account or folder with characteristics specified in
advance, then drop traffic on the floor if they don't comply?
It is probable spam we are talking about, is it not?
How much engineering can that justify vs stuffing **SPAM?** into a
header???
Or is your 'service' falsing on you too often? ;-)

I have several levels of spam classification. Low scoring spam I tag and
pass on. Higher scoring spam I bounce or blackhole. Or sometimes I do
direct folder deliver of different grades of spam.
