| I've been running some limited experiments with harvesting traplist addresses from "Unknown user" entries in my mail server logs and, more recently, directly harvested from my greylist, all the while publishing the contents of my greytrapping list on a web page.

No animals were hurt in the process; in fact my budgies were very well treated. - P [1] http://bsdly.blogspot.com/2007/07/he...t-for-you.html [2] http://bsdly.blogspot.com/2007/07/ha...ill-fresh.html -- Peter N.
