Well, I think you are missing that these zombie computer networks are being
used as spambots that are controlled by a central source. While the
addresses might look weird, a good amount of them will get stopped by the 4
methods I mentioned.
Perhaps just count it as a highly ineffective dictionary attack ;-)

It's not so much a dictionary attack, at least not to me. They're all
coming to recipients that resemble a message ID, as opposed to some name
like some viruses use. Like, the message SENDER is [EMAIL PROTECTED], or
[EMAIL PROTECTED], and try to deliver TO [EMAIL PROTECTED], which
is of course invalid.
