No. An address that receives significant amounts of valid mailings is not a spamtrap. Look in your maillogs for addresses that never existed but get mail (for some reason an address constructed by removing the first four letters from an existing address e.g. lax gets mail). Then set those up as spamtraps. If your spamtraps send mail (to make spammers think it's a live address and spread it around), make up a header and include it in the mail. If you see that in the *body* of a message you get, it's a bounce - don't report it. cmeclax -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.7 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE90wyWuC68zGjlkbYRAkAQAJ0ZDOWcUu9fB/HlXm7VdnPXTTCjgACgoNF5 fFqjzNawGYG0/+Do0ygKeeM= =fYCM -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by: Are you worried about your web server security?
