with a second address go to sites that manage a lot of groups (like yahoo groups) and sign up for a list that has 'free' stuff in it. let the account build up mail for a couple of weeks (they will be selling your e-mail address to numerous places as quickly as possible). then as you start gettting mail from the various mailing lists (and there will be MANY in a relatively short period of time), try to unsubscribe from each. if after 72 hours (my preference) you receive any mail from that list (or you get a bounce/404/etc. in the unsubscribe attempt) consider it spam. of course, this will take some work because you need to keep a list of senders that have been notified of your disinterest (and when). might make for a nice honeypot mailet one of these days.
there are other ways, however if you are diligent with these two you will start harvesting a lot of muck off the wire in no time! :o)
that said, the other option is to let someone like spamhaus.org, et al. do it (or volunteer to help out) and just rbl filter levraging the techniques they have devised. james already supports this out of the box.
