Not really.. it's not fully for list like SLUG.. it's more for registrations
which you may or may not trust with your email address. I am currently using
a hotmail.com address which is full of spam but I would have liked to know
where they came from so in future I'm careful of what email address to use.

So in future, if I receive a spam deny to [EMAIL PROTECTED] then at least I
know that ICQ have started selling off their email lists.. etc..etc.. if you
know what I'm trying to get at..

But wouldn't that also block non-spam email from that site to which you
subscribed?
