I am not aware of a specific collection, and I suspect it would be of
limited use anyway. As you mentioned yourself, spammers use newly
created accounts. Block them, and they create more. That's a type of
whack-a-mole game that's hard to win.

One can choose not to accept mail from any [email protected] until that
sender address has been cleared, based on a recipient's request. Yes, I
can hear the cries of "that's unrealistic". ;-) While certainly not an
option available to many organisations, it is very effective for those
willing and able to play hardball with prevoiusly unknown senders.
